(Whiteboard: [fixed by bug 1270853])

The statistics-overlay of HTML5-videos should display what kind of decoder is being used. The info to be added would be what container (MP4, WebM), what video-format (H264, VP8, VP9, ...), what audio-format (MP3, AAC, Vorbis, ...) and if the video-format is being decoded by software (WMF, GStreamer, ...) or by hardware (DXVA2, VDPAU, ...). This would help diagnosing if hardware-decoding is working correctly or if hardware-decoding is being used at all. The info would also help with diagnosing problems and the effectiveness of bugfixes for bugs like bug847267.
