Such a function would be the last I would do in JS. I mean, that is all about, what content is to be delivered to the visitor no? So I would use a system, that runs on the server to assemble the list of stuff, that is to land in the visitors browser... Python, Perl even or... Run for the hills!!

I mean: if the publisher of a Linux-related video chooses some weired format not viewable in a out-of-the-box Linux with say VLC and Mplayer installed...
