Support WebM with V9 Codec

Currently only V8 is supported which don’t bring any advantage in compression/file-size compared to MP4/H.264

Here are some requirements for Assets/Dynamic Media

  • Dynamic Media accepts WebM/VP9 video files during the asset upload process 
  • WebM/VP9 assets are automatically ingested into the Dynamic Media processing pipeline and appear in the DAM with correct metadata (resolution, frame rate, duration, codec).
  • Video Profiles in Dynamic Media include WebM/VP9 as a transcoding output format with configurable bitrate, resolution, and quality settings.
  • Dynamic Media delivers WebM/VP9 video via adaptive streaming to supported browsers, with automatic fallback to MP4/H.264 for non-compatible clients.
  • Asset processing status (pending, processing, failed, ready) is correctly reflected in the AEM DAM interface for WebM/VP9 files.
  • Published WebM/VP9 assets are delivered through the Dynamic Media CDN with proper cache headers and MIME type (video/webm).
