Chapter 9: Multimedia
The video and audio elements, along with their related APIs, are in IE9 and above and all other major browsers, although with the caveat about supported file types discussed in Chapter 9. The track element is supported in the desktop versions of IE10, Safari 6 and above, Chrome, and Opera; Chrome for Android is the only mobile browser to offer support. Media Fragments are implemented in Firefox and WebKit browsers.
The Web Audio API is experimentally implemented in Chrome and Safari (iOS and desktop) using the webkitAudioContext() constructor. Of WebRTC, only the getUserMedia() method is currently supported, which was mentioned in Chapter 6.
