If multiple sets of codec are provided to the player it will automatically detect which codec to use based on device capabilities.

(21) Using Widevine DRM in an Android WebView requires the Widevine CDM to be available in that WebView. Older versions of Android System WebView may not come with that CDM so older Android devices (before Android 7) may not always be able to decode DRM encrypted content (an error message is shown to the viewer in that context).
