  • Still waiting on Bugzilla to be able to make signature shortening go live. See bug 1178094

• EME automation + YouTube MSE automation [sydpolk]
  • [sydpolk] Netflix video apparently requires 250 Kbps or greater, so need to account for that in network bandwidth limiting tests. Youtube tests are in production.
  • [read-only] [sydpolk] Trying to clarify where web-platform media-source tests are being run. Hopefully, these will all be all in buildbot at some point, and we can turn off the Jenkins versions.
  • [maja_zf] Media tests are running per commit (m-i, m-c); Temporarily under symbol Mt on Treeherder; will be moved into job group VP during the next Treeherder prod push (in a few weeks?) https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=mozilla-inbound&filter-job_type_symbol=Mt
