Description of your pull request and other information
Currently, the SMIL parser only extracts media streams from
<audio>
and<video>
elements.While as far as I can tell not spec compliant, in practice
<media>
elements are also sometimes used.Looking around this seems to be something Microsoft likes to do, for example in Windows Media Player Playlists and Windows Media Services.
