In the world of images & video, Safari 17.0 includes:
• the `image-set()` arguments `resolution` and `type`.
• JPEG XL
• HEIC
• AV1 on devices with hardware support
• Managed Media Source API (better MSE)
• an overlay for `<video>` that shows media player stats (for developers)

@jensimmons So looking forward to the new features, like profiles 🙂

@jensimmons Any way to bypass that hardware support requirement for AV1? Asking for... development purposes. The feature flags only contain a flag for AV1 WebCodec API, not for general support.

JPEG XL 😍

@MoritzFirsching @jensimmons Well, TBH I hoped for JPEG XL (or AVIF) with HDR. Hopefully in 2024.

@jensimmons Any chance for configuration of search providers? I'm using Kagi now, and the configuration to use it for iOS is a bit non-ideal, but I haven't pushed the iOS 17 button yet.
