This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Please remove the Matroska example; the type isn't registered, and the furthermore the specification (at <http://www.matroska.org/technical/specs/notes.html>) doesn't mention a "codecs" parameter.
Eric, Dave, foolip, any advice on this?
Since I assume no one is ever going to support Matroska in <video>, I wouldn't mind removing it. I don't agree with the reason given though, I think we should have a video/webm example, even though that also isn't registered.
seems it would be easy to update the MIME statement on the indicated page to add "the codecs MIME parameter may be used, as in RFC 4285. For a Matroska file, the value is a list of CodecIDs, for example as in http://www.matroska.org/technical/specs/codecid/index.html" Then we get both a useful example and documentation.

I don't think that would be appropriate. If someone ever wanted to support Matroska, it's unlikely they'd want to have codecs=V_THEORA instead of codecs=theora. As a quickfix, just remove the example.
