Integrated video codecs in Brave?

Hello everyone,

I have a question related to Brave’s support for video codecs. Some time ago I noticed that certain multimedia contents that work on Firefox did not work using Chromium on Linux. However, installing the package ‘chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra’ fixed the problem while only installing ‘chromium-codecs-ffmpeg’ did not work. Unluckily, I did not save link to a particular site to check this with Brave, too.

Thus, I would like to find out which codecs does Brave support and in particular, is there anything missing as in Chromium that requires a package as ‘chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra’? And if so, is there any option to additionally install these codecs? As I found no resource clarifying this, I want to quickly ask here. Thanks in advance!
