I've asked the BBC what codec they are using given the comment that a
Chrome codec is closed.

The codec for the 4.0 tests is the standard aac-lc nailed to 320kbps. AIUI
the challenge for FF, etc, is to deal with the Media Source Extension and
Audio API involved. Apparently ME11 also works. They want it work with as
many browsers, etc, as possible so nothing is 'special' or targetted at
Chrome or ME.

Has anyone with a surround system tried FF? Or is it known not to work
because it doesn't support the above?
