      The HTML Audio and Video support is probably all not used in Code. However I guess it could be hard to compile chromium (and electron) without these, if they didn't invest the additional effort to put them behind a compile flag.

        It is, you can watch videos at the extensions marketplace.

          Those are animated GIF's, not "real" videos.

        Actually, audio/video can be and is used. There is an API for previewing HTML documents, <video> and <audio> tags work perfectly fine.
