      3. Switch to the list view (button in top right)
      4. Verify that all the files uploaded and that every file has a corresponding string under the "Type" column (they should be things like "Audio file (MP3)", "Video file (MP4)", not MIME types)

    Description

      Add filetype .vtt for video/audio tracks, create a group html5_track for it
      Add group html5_video for video formats supported in <source> of <video> tags
      Add group html5_audio for audio formats supported in <source> of <audio> tags

      extensions for audio sources: ogg, oga, aac, m4a, mp3, wav, flac
      extensions for video sources: m4v, webm, ogv, mp4, mpeg, mpe, mpg

      (Also make sure all these types are also in "web_video"/"web_audio" groups - I noticed that .og* are not for example)

      These types/groups will be used in atto_media (MDL-55324) and media_html5* plugins (MDL-38158)
