1129362 - [EME] Allow the EME doorhanger notification to show multiple different CDM vendors if/when applicable

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[:Gijs (he/him)]

As per summary, the current doorhanger text only really supports 1 CDM vendor at a time. Florian raised the question of what happens if multiple CDM vendors are in use on a page, perhaps because of frames. Right now we'll just mention the first one. We can clearly do better, but this requires (a) thoughts about the wording (I'm guessing we'll just have to pluralform a la "... uses Frob, Frab and Frib DRM", but I'm open to other ideas), and (b) for us to get the real vendor info on the frontend, and (c) for us to keep the previous vendor info on a per-browser basis.

I don't think we need to or should do this (stated a little more firmly than bug 1111148 comment 31). There's little to no value in surfacing the (exceptionally rare) case of multiple DRM schemes being used on a page. That 1 is being used is sufficient.

If a specific and compelling need / use-case arises, we can reopen.
