H.264 baseline is not even supported by FFMPEG, GStreamer parsers or
nearly any HW decoder (that includes Intel, AMD and NVidia HW).
OpenH264 (used by most driver) may have support for main, but I think
only a subset. Also note that H.264 in optional, so you cannot really
rely on this CODEC being available. For compatibility reason, it's
always better if you maintain support for VP8 and/or VP9.
