Dear Apple Community, I am writing to seek assistance with a challenge I've encountered regarding the playback of WebM video format in Safari. Despite various attempts and troubleshooting, I've been unable to successfully play WebM videos in Safari using the HTML5 video tag with provided Blob URLs. The videos, which are recorded in WebM format using browsers such as Chrome, fail to play in Safari, causing inconvenience for users who rely on this browser for their browsing needs. I understand that Safari may have certain limitations and compatibility issues with certain multimedia formats, but as WebM gains popularity as a widely used format for web-based videos, its support in Safari would greatly enhance the browsing experience for many users. I'm reaching out to inquire if there are any known solutions, workarounds, or plans to address this issue. Specifically, I've attempted to utilize the HTML5 video tag with Blob URLs to play WebM videos in Safari, but to no avail. If there are alternative methods or techniques that I may have overlooked, I would greatly appreciate any guidance or assistance in enabling playback of WebM videos in Safari. Ensuring cross-browser compatibility and seamless playback of multimedia content is crucial for providing a consistent and enjoyable user experience across different platforms and environments. Any insights or recommendations from the Apple community would be immensely helpful in resolving this issue. Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to your response. Sincerely, Umair Khan
