           Summary: A platform should be able to use more than one media
                    engine for <video> and <audio>
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Misc.
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: eric.carlson at apple.com


It is very difficult for a port to use more than one media engine to implement
<video> and <audio> (eg. QuickTime and Windows Media on Windows) because there
can be only one type of  MediaPlayerPrivate. MediaPlayer should be able to
create more than one type of private player, and should have a heuristic for
choose the correct engine based on MIME type.
