I don’t even use av1 for anything. 🤷
Booo…
AV1 + OPUS for life!
Streaming sites use them so there’s a solid chance you’ve used it plenty without actively choosing to
I don’t use it, I can’t speak to anyone else using it. If YouTube is sending it out that’s them using it. None of my files are that codec.
So you just don’t watch it in that case?
Yeah, totally. 🙄
Honestly, that’s how the codec game works. Most people or software don’t adopt until after the successor is in place. It’s more about the software side lagging to adopt though. Nvidia just got AV1 into their hardware processing pipeline in the last 2 years. I think AMD is even more recent than that.
Surprisingly enough first to adopt av1 into GPU was intel with arc GPUs
Intel was one of the funding corporations for that initial APM codec work, so that’s not shocking at all.
