Test matrix
What to test and what a pass actually tells you
Run the test closest to the symptom. A passing result narrows the diagnosis; it does not certify the entire device.
Use the result to narrow the next branch; browser visibility is intentionally limited to the subsystem exposed by the current API.

→Use the result as a visual/timing reference. It cannot certify panel electronics or cable signal integrity by itself.

→A pass proves this browser received live camera frames; app selection, permissions or capture mode become more important if one app still fails.
→A pass proves the selected input delivered audio into this browser session; app routing or processing becomes the next branch.
→A pass proves browser playback reaches the selected output path; it does not prove every codec, surround or app-specific route.
→Diagnostic focus
Problems worth separating on this model
Evidence handoff

Keep the browser result as one observation, then move to the operating system or manufacturer diagnostic that can see the protected hardware state. Do not interpret an unsupported browser API as a failed component.
