Web recording fidelity refers to the audio quality that web applications can capture from microphones and audio interfaces through a browser. On Windows, Chrome has historically limited web-based recording to a basic 16-bit capture path, creating a gap between desktop recording apps and web apps. Recent Chromium project commits indicate work to allow Chrome to request and preserve higher-quality input, potentially improving fidelity for web recording.
