Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Audio/Video, task)

Description

[telemetry-probes]

The following Firefox probes will expire in the next major Firefox nightly release: version 132 [1].

media.audio_process_per_codec_name

What to do about this:

1. If one, some, or all of the metrics are no longer needed, please remove them from their definitions files (Histograms.json, Scalars.yaml, Events.yaml).
2. If one, some, or all of the metrics are still required, please submit a patch to extend their expiry.

If you have any problems, please ask for help on the #data-help Slack channel or the #telemetry Matrix room at https://chat.mozilla.org/#/room/#telemetry:mozilla.org. We'll give you a hand.

Tracking because e.g. ipc/glue/test/browser/browser_audio_telemetry_content.js checks for this.

We filed this for the Utility AudioDecoder work, which from my point of view is done and we would not need it anymore. Do you think we should renew ?

[Alastor Wu [:alwu]]

I'm good to remove that if we don't need that for any future analysis.

Comment 5

[Paul Adenot (:padenot)]

Yes, good to remove, thanks for double checking.

(In reply to Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout) from comment #6)

Reminder: The change must land this week before central merges to beta next Monday.

I'm lost here: current nightly is 131, so we want to change that when we move to 132, no?

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

The test will start to fail once the version has been increased to 132 next Monday, and the test must not fail permanently.

If the code is not needed anymore independent of the version, it should be removed if this week. Else the test needs to be disabled next Monday. If the probe should be kept in 131 but removed from 132, please provide a patch and it will be landed next Monday directly after the version got increased to 132.
