Android devices in some cases don’t have H264 HW. Libwebrtc also doesn’t support SW H264.

That has added lots of complexity/confusion for people building stuff also. Quite a few footguns in this area :)

If we want to get really pedantic...WebRTC will support SW H264 if you enable it explicitly in the compilation, since you're technically on the hook for royalties if you compile it yourself. Footguns galore :)
