caption: Allow <ph name="PEPPER_NAME">Pepper</ph> to use a new decoder
for hardware accelerated video decoding.
desc: |-
This policy controls whether <ph name="PEPPER_NAME">Pepper</ph> plugins can
use the new decoder to talk to hardware decoders instead of the legacy video
decoder.
The migration only affects internal implementation details and should not
change any behavior. However, this policy can be used in case any PPAPI
applications do not work as expected.
When the policy is left unset or set to Enabled the browser will decide which
implementation is used.
When the policy is set to Disabled, the browser will use the old implementation
until this policy expires.
If you must use the policy, please file a bug on crbug.com explaining your
use case and CC {andrescj, blundell, pmolinalopez, vasilyt}@chromium.org. The
policy is scheduled to be offered through <ph
name="PRODUCT_NAME">$1<ex>Google Chrome</ex></ph> version 114, after which
the old implementation will be removed.
NOTE: Only newly-started renderer processes will reflect changes to this
policy while the browser is running.
