Summary

Add compatibility data for the RTCRtpEncodingParameters.scalabilityMode parameter used by WebRTC SVC.

The new data covers both API paths where the parameter can be provided:

  • RTCRtpSender.setParameters() via parameters.encodings
  • RTCPeerConnection.addTransceiver() via init.sendEncodings

Test results and supporting details

  • npm run format passed.
  • BCD linting passed with no errors.
  • The test suite passed: 338 tests passed, 0 failed.
  • git diff --check passed.
  • Chrome support is recorded from version 111 based on the WebRTC SVC implementation.
  • Firefox and Safari are recorded as unsupported for this specific encoding parameter.
