Description

Unity webrtc running in android receives the offer but doesn't send answer for decoding video streamed in H265/VP9 formats. How to solve it ?

I am running latest version webrtc-2.4.0-exp.3 and the hardware (Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 CPU) used supports this type of video format in hardware decoding.

When used with VP8, it is sending back the answer.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Unity WebRTC 2.4.0-exp.3 Android flow with the Snapdragon 835, comparing the VP8 case with H265 and VP9 offers. Investigate the offer-handling path and codec negotiation; done means the package sends an answer for supported H265/VP9 hardware-decoding offers, or clearly documents that they are unsupported.
