WebRTC p2p call, VP9-SVC only low layer decoded on receiver side

1) initiate WebRTC p2p call
2) peerA sends video stream, codec VP9-SVC with 3 spatial layers (720p, 360p, 180p)

actual result:
- peerB always decodes and plays only lowest layer (180p)

expected result:
- peerB should play high layer

NOTE: issue is not reproduces on safari Version 14.1.2 (16611.3.10.1.3)

Thanks for the report.

Would it be possible to get a repro case maybe as well, or get a sample bitstream?

Can you also clarify which version of Safari you have tested, and the device?
It would be nice to know whether that reproduces with HW VP9 decoder or SW VP9 decoder. I am leaning towards the former.

Thanks Ivan, I validated that the issue is with the HW VP9 decoder, not the SW one.

To detect this, media capabilities can be used, for instance:
navigator.mediaCapabilities.decodingInfo({
  type: "file",
    video: {
      contentType: 'video/mp4; codecs="vp09.00.41.08"',
      width: 800,
      height: 600,
      bitrate: 10000,
      framerate: 15
   }
}).then(result => console.log(result.powerEfficient))

Is there any reason to create the report if the endpoint has stopped?
