I thought you were being facetious. Sigh. Damn, but that's broken.
I've worked with video format streaming, though, and encountered a situation where there was a driver on a certain Android device manufactured by a major hardware vendor that you've certainly heard of, and their driver silently corrupted video that was using low-latency streaming options. And by "corrupted" I mean that, while a few of the pixels looked almost right, sometimes, it was mostly just garbage and blank grey screens.
I gave them a sample stream that failed, and they verified that yes, it's their fault. And that no, they weren't going to ship an update for it. Sorry. Device had been out for two years. Apparently no one thought to actually test the various standard options in that video codec. It works with the "normal" options? Ship it!
So I totally understand the need to look at UA strings. I had to look for that particular device hardware profile and disable the low-latency streaming options in order for our product to work on that device.
