{{APIRef("WebCodecs API")}}{{SecureContext_Header}}{{AvailableInWorkers("window_and_dedicated")}}

The isConfigSupported() static method of the {{domxref("AudioDecoder")}} interface checks if the given config is supported (that is, if {{domxref("AudioDecoder")}} objects can be successfully configured with the given config).

Syntax

AudioDecoder.isConfigSupported(config)

Parameters

• config
  • : The dictionary object accepted by {{domxref("AudioDecoder.configure")}}

Return value

A {{jsxref("Promise")}} that resolves with an object containing the following members:

• supported
  • : A boolean value which is true if the given config is supported by the decoder.
• config
  • : A copy of the given config with all the fields recognized by the decoder.

Exceptions

• {{jsxref("TypeError")}}
  • : Thrown if the provided config is invalid; that is, if doesn't have required values (such as an empty codec field) or has invalid values (such as a negative sampleRate).

Examples

The following example tests if the browser supports several audio codecs.

const codecs = ["mp4a.40.2", "mp3", "alaw", "ulaw"];
const configs = [];
for (const codec of codecs) {
  configs.push({
    codec,
    sampleRate: 48000,
    numberOfChannels: 1,
    not_supported_field: 123,
  });
}
for (const config of configs) {
  const support = await AudioDecoder.isConfigSupported(config);
  console.log(
    `AudioDecoder's config ${JSON.stringify(support.config)} support: ${
      support.supported
    }`,
  );
}
