summary
HTML5 exposes real video and audio controls plus WebVTT timed text tracks that attach captions, metadata or coordinates to media and enable indexing and jumping to exact moments (used to caption and index conference talks). JavaScript controls playbackRate with browser pitch correction, alpha-channel compositing in video, and aims toward in-browser editing. WebRTC handles NAT traversal and signaling, moves webcam streams peer‑to‑peer, and exposes an RTC data channel over UDP for low‑latency, lossy game and musical collaboration.
