    Netflix AV1

    Just wondering when support for AV1 will roll out?

    They just got support for VP9, I never saw them say they were going to support AV1

      Netflix added AV1 back in 2020 but only for Android devices because they were the devices that had the biggest percentage of chipsets to hardware decode AV1.

      Then they added a few other Smart TVs in 2021

      Now that pretty much all Android/Google/Fire TV, Samsung TV and LG TV since 2020 support it, it makes sense that Netflix is delivering content that way.

      VP10 was folded into AV1 so it again makes sense that they now support AVC, HEVC, VP9 and AV1. The Alliance for Open Media is already working on AV2 so companies need to be nimble in adoption. Netflix said if they weren't using HEVC and AV1, global bandwidth used to watch Netflix would be higher by 25% so they are constantly trying to reduce that.

          Just found this...AV1 Playback Support: Everything You Need to Know [2023 Update] (bitmovin.com)

          As usual, Apple doesn't like anything that is royalty-free...

          I just installed the AV1 Extension from the Microsoft Store now that i am officially dumping Chrome and only using Edge.

          Now i have to update all my yt-dlp scripts to use Edge cookies instead of Chrome

                Lol are you serious right now? Specs were finalized in 2020 and we all know how long it takes for adoption.

                x266 encoder isn't even publicly available yet (will be in 2nd half of 2023). Even if they were to use Fraunhofer's VVenC, your PC doesn't support hardware encoding.

                Even Intel's Arc GPU only supports AV1 encoding where the specs were finalized in 2015. 12th gen cannot hardware encode AV1, let alone VVC.

                Same boat for NVidia. They just added AV1 to the Jetson Orin Industrial embeded products. Those are for AI-powered robots, smart drones, etc... Not consumer products.

                  You said 2nd half of 2023

                  it is NOW 07-02-2023

                  People need to start using it

                  Checking it out

                  Making it better

                  I like H265

                  The inner working should Not be that different !!!!!!!

                    And i also said there are no consumer hardware encoders for it.

                    So go ahead and message them with your reply to my message: x266 - VVC Encoder | x266 Encoder | HEVC Codec | MulticoreWare (multicorewareinc.com)

                    Please let us know when they let you download it and also let us know if you are able to software encode a 2 hour movie in less than 76 hours

                      It's 50% more efficient than H265 and 6.5x slower at encoding (more complex computation) but sure... shouldn't be that different...smh

                        Life used to be so simple. When I was growing up the biggest hardware issue we had was whether we had enough aluminum foil in the kitchen cabinet to add to the rabbit ears of our 19 inch B&W TV in order to pick up a distant TV station.

                          Yes, it has BUGS to work Out.

                          DVDfab NEVER has Problems

                          Everything WORKS Perfect

                              Wow... You are really something else... How is being slower, because doing more complex computations in software instead of hardware, a bug?

                              Anyway, i am done with this thread since clearly nothing constructive will come of it.
