Chrome has supported xHE-AAC since 2020 on Android, 2022 on macOS, and added support on Windows last week.

Interesting. What about Firefox? What about hardware acceleration?
It may just work in Firefox on OS with xHE-AAC support since they already rely on the system for AAC decoding IIRC. canPlayType/isTypeSupported probably indicate no support unless they've explicitly added support though.

I'm not aware of any hardware acceleration.
