Explainer
https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/MSEdgeExplainers/blob/main/RTCRtpReceiverDecoderFallback/explainer.md


Specification
No information provided


Summary
Adds decoderstatechange and decodererror events to RTCRtpReceiver so 
applications can detect runtime decoder changes and terminal decoding failures. 
decoderstatechange reports when the codec or decoder implementation changes, 
while decodererror reports an unrecoverable failure as an EncodingError. These 
events let applications adapt playback, inform users, and diagnose problems 
without repeatedly polling statistics.


Blink component
Blink>WebRTC>PeerConnection


Web Feature ID
webrtc


Motivation
WebRTC applications cannot directly observe codec changes or terminal decoder 
failures as they occur. Developers must poll getStats() and infer failures from 
indirect signals, which produces unreliable heuristics and can create 
compatibility problems. When hardware decoding fails and no software decoder is 
available, as can occur with H.265, playback stops and only the application can 
ask the remote endpoint to send a different codec. Event-driven notifications 
let applications recover promptly by renegotiating codecs or adjusting 
playback, inform users, and diagnose changes that can affect latency, quality, 
and power consumption.
