Thank you for your research and the call to action in the end, but currently arguably duplicate of #6836 0:-) |

@Schweinepriester I know. I'll close this if you adopt my change (footnote) in your PR and add |
|
We must avoid misleading users of iPhone 15 (Plus) or Mac or iPad with the M1/M2 chip that they can watch AV1 videos by Safari first. |
|
@Schweinepriester I have to tell you I noticed your PR after submitting this. |
|
@tats-u Just saw this PR after merging @Schweinepriester 's one, happy to include your updated note if you don't mind updating your PR. |

@Fyrd I'm willing to rebase my PR |

@Fyrd Does this expression have to be improved?

Do you have a proposed change? |

I don't know whether iOS Safari supports AV1 in MP4 container too.

M2 chip (Desktop/Notebook/iPad Pro) doesn't have AV1 support, so macOS shouldn't be "partially support" as of now.
The CPU in final Intel Mac is 8th gen. Intel CPU started AV1 hardware decoding in 11th gen.

If you have iPhone 15 Pro (Max), I'd appreciate if you access to https://tests.caniuse.com/av1 by your iPhone, try playing video there, and report whether you could play it or not.
