Hello Hector!
These results make a lot of sense, and are what I would expect:
Android does not support Dolby codecs.
This is no speculation, but specified:
https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/media/media-formats
(Chrome on Android should show the very same results. )
Interestingly, Android does natively support hevc (video codec),
though restricted to level 4.1 (minimum requirement).
Best,
Stefan

Ammendment:
“EAC-3 (DD+) is natively supported by Edge and all Safari browsers.”
I did a fast html5test (.com) on my iPad running on some very old iOS
13.x (for some stupid reason I can’t update my AirPad Air 2 to version
15.x, which would be the last supported one; need probably to reset my
Apple ID to “recover” my lost password 🤭), and even in this outdated
configuration:
DD+ is definitively supported by mobile Safari, see result list (here
posted in text format, sursound might not like htrml5 text...I hope
there won't be any "optical breakdown"...):

PCM audio support
No

I don't think that iOS/iPadOS 16-x would show different results, by the
way.
As there is no Safari adaptation for Windows, Linux etc., my statement
that any (more or less recent) Safati browser would support DD+ should
be correct.
Edge: Supports all tested codecs (above) on Win10. (I don't know which
codecs the Edge browsers would support or better "would not support"
if running on other operating systems than Windows, but you can always
test via html5test.com)
(Maybe this last question is a bit academic anyway... Edge is in the
very most cases used as desktop browser for Windows 10/11.)
Best,
Stefan

I think that mobile Safari (so the Safari version for iOS and
iPadOS) should also support DD+ (since iOS 14/iPadOS 14 probably),
because Apple Spatial Audio supports DD+/Atmos.
I will try to test this. ;-)
Otherwise, agreed.
Best,
Stefan
