Expand description

Whether the user may send video to the webview <video> element instead of the native renderer.

Never on Android: ExoPlayer is its only video renderer. Downloads there are the untouched source file (DR-293), and the webview decodes none of the AC-3/E-AC-3/DTS/TrueHD that ExoPlayer plays through the FFmpeg extension, so the fallback would be a silent film. Beside mpv’s native video on Linux the webview is still the tested fallback; everywhere else it is the only renderer and there is nothing to switch.
