That's an open bug on their tracker. Whether it's right or not depends on which hat you're wearing at the time. With my FOSS supporter hat on I can agree with you. With my standards purist hat on I would say it shouldn't check codecs at all, as they aren't in the standard. As an end user wanting to know the capabilities of my browser I would want to know all the codecs it supports. _______________________________________________ Shr-User mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shr-project.org/mailman/listinfo/shr-user
