+<p><span class="seoSummary">    {{HTMLElement("audio")}} 和 {{HTMLElement("video")}}是浏览器内置的播放音频或视频的元素;</span>视频和音频编解码器用来处理视频和音频，不同的编解码器提供不同级别的压缩率和分辨率；一个容器封装格式（多媒体容器格式）用来存储和传输编码后的视频和音频（如果视频带有音轨则同时；编解码器和多媒体容器格式有非常多的组合；尽管只有很少部分和WEB相关；<br>
+    <br>
+     由于专利的问题，不同的浏览器对HTML5的video和audio有不同的规范和实现；WEB上的媒体格式领域受到在包括美国、欧盟在内的许多国家的专利法的保护和制约；本文将讨论了不同的编解码器和封装格式在WEB上的各种组合，包括在桌面设备和其他设备上的浏览器的支持情况。</p>
+
+<p>     想要在HTML5中播放视频，并且主流浏览器的最新版本中支持良好；可以使用WebM 和 MPEG H.264 AAC 编码格式；像下面一样使用{{HTMLElement("source")}}元素</p>
+
+<pre class="brush: html">&lt;video controls&gt;
+  &lt;source src="somevideo.webm" type="video/webm"&gt;
+  &lt;source src="somevideo.mp4" type="video/mp4"&gt;
+  I'm sorry; your browser doesn't support HTML5 video in WebM with VP8/VP9 or MP4 with H.264.
+  &lt;!-- You can embed a Flash player here, to play your mp4 video in older browsers --&gt;
+&lt;/video&gt;

+<h2 id="Ogg_Theora_Vorbis">Ogg Theora Vorbis</h2>
+
+<p>Ogg容器格式使用Theora视频编解码器和 Vorbis音频编解码器。在的桌面和移动端的Gecko(Firefox)，Chrome和Opera；Safari（非IOS）可以通过添加扩展支持；但是不支持IE</p>
+
+<p>WebM在可选的情况下是优选项；因为它能提供更高的压缩比，并且被更多的浏览器所支持；而Ogg容器格式主要用于支持低版本的浏览器（比如： Firefox 3.5/3.6就不支持WebM，但是支持Ogg）</p>
+
+<p>Ogg的授权情况和WebM类似</p>
+
+<p>Gecko提供下面3种Ogg文件格式的MIME type：</p>
+
+<p><strong>audio/ogg</strong></p>
+
+<p>一个只包含音频的Ogg文件</p>
+
+<p><strong>video/ogg</strong></p>
+
+<p>一个包含视频或音频的Ogg文件</p>
+
+<p><strong>application/ogg</strong></p>
+
+<p>一个不指定内容的Ogg文件，当你不知道内容的时候可以选择</p>
+
+<h2 id="Ogg_Opus">Ogg Opus</h2>
+
+<p>Ogg容器可以通过使用<a href="http://www.opus-codec.org/">Opus codec</a>包含音频编解码器；用来支持Gecko 15.0 (Firefox 15.0 / Thunderbird 15.0 / SeaMonkey 2.12) 或更新的版本</p>
+
+<h2 id="Ogg_FLAC">Ogg FLAC</h2>
+
+<p>Ogg容器可以通过使用<a href="https://xiph.org/flac/index.html">FLAC codec</a>包含音频编解码器；用来支持Gecko 51.0 {{geckoRelease("51.0")}} 或更新的版本, 但只适用于桌面浏览器</p>
+
+<h2 id="MP4_FLAC">MP4 FLAC</h2>
+
+<p>从Firefox 51开始，你就可以使用FLAC编解码器播放MP4了，不管你有没有安装 <a href="/en-US/docs/Web/API/Media_Source_Extensions_API">MediaSource Extensions</a>和DRM 扩展支持。</p>
+
+<h2 id="MP3">MP3</h2>
+
+<p>MP3 audio 编码对应浏览器&lt;audio&gt;的支持。其中Firefox/Firefox for Android/Firefox OS需要操作系统本身提供了MP3的解码器；而IE，Chrome，Safari则原生支持</p>
+
+<h2 id="WAVE_PCM">WAVE PCM</h2>
+
+<p>WAVE容器使用PCM音频编解码器；桌面和移动Gecko (Firefox) a、 Safari都支持，WAVE容器中的文件后缀为 ".wav"。</p>
+
+<div class="note">See <a class="external" href="http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2361.txt">RFC 2361</a> for the WAVE codec registry.</div>
+
+<p>Gecko提供下面4种WAVE文件格式的MIME type：</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><code>audio/wave</code> (preferred; does not work in Chrome)</li>
+ <li><code>audio/wav</code></li>
+ <li><code>audio/x-wav</code></li>
+ <li><code>audio/x-pn-wav</code></li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2 id="FLAC">FLAC</h2>
+
+<p>FLAC容器格式使用 FLAC 音频编解码器 (<a href="https://xiph.org/flac/index.html">FLAC codec</a>)；桌面端受到Gecko Firefox 51.0 (Firefox 51.0 / Thunderbird 51.0 / SeaMonkey 2.48)的支持，文件后缀为 “.flac”</p>
+
+<p>Gecko提供下面4种FLAC文件格式的MIME type：</p>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><code>audio/flac</code> (preferred)</li>
+ <li><code>audio/x-flac</code></li>
+</ul>
+
+<h2 id="Media_Source_Extensions_(MSE)">Media Source Extensions (MSE)</h2>
+
+<p>媒体源扩展(MSE)是一个W3C工作草案，计划扩展{{domxref("HTMLMediaElement")}}以允许JavaScript生成用于重放的媒体流。 允许JavaScript生成流以适应各种应用场景，如自适应流和时移实时流。 MSE支持仅限于MP4和WebM容器，但编解码器支持因底层平台而异。</p>
+
+<p>例如：可以使用JavaScript实现MPEG-DASH，同时将解码解压缩到MSE。<br>
+ <br>
+ For example, <a href="http://msopentech.com/blog/2014/01/03/streaming_video_player/">you could implement MPEG-DASH using JavaScript while offloading the decoding to MSE</a>.</p>
+
+<div class="note">
+<p><strong>时间位移(Time shifting)</strong> 功能主要是将即时内容，录制在存储器上，可以暂时离开，一定时间回来后，可以从离开的时间通过内部的重播。</p>
