as per Eric's request here, https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2009-April/007254.html in a simple scenario of: <audio> <source src="/media/audio/ogg/9001_10000/9807.ogg" type="audio/ogg;codecs=vorbis"/> <source src="/media/audio/m4a/9001_10000/9807.m4a"/> </audio> the m4a audio file will play on Safari. However, add some declaration of a type attribute to the source tag, for example: <source src="/media/audio/m4a/9001_10000/9807.m4a" type= "audio/mp4;codecs=&quot;mp4a.40.2&quot;"/> and audio playback will break. This happens on <audio> enabled Safari builds, w32 and OSX. I'm finding this problem by following what is currently defined for <audio> and <source> usage, on the whatwg documentation site. I don't have a profound understanding of how WebKit interacts with QuickTime or other media_kits. thanks jp
