wait, we have a new codec?
is this the one that mozilla try to promote?
oh well, time to wait for a new hardware

meanwhile some fansub still being an asshole using hi10p

by 2020 year end or 2021 if u looking 4 hardware support on av1

im targetting zen2+navi setup this year, sure will miss those av1 codec support.
oh well those GPU can wait.

Tq.I will buy 4K monitor to confirm this

Mozilla is one of the founding members of the organisation, and it contributed some new tools in the codec.

Or if you're lazy, just use Edge browser

Heard that the most optimistic schedule for a chip supporting AV1 hardware decoding to be in the market is by end of this year.

hopefully can see some appear in the market to drive the speed of adoption

Judging by the members of the alliance, especially those content providers (Google, netflix, amazon, Facebook, iqiyi, alibaba), the adoption of AV should be faster compared to VP9.

Agree, currently xiph and other is developing much more optimized and better AV1 encoder called rav1e, let see what happend once development is done

Maybe?, AV1 is about 40% more efficient than VP9 and about 20-30% more efficient than X265(HEVC)
it has larger block,more prediction direction, and new feature like Chroma from luma prediction,film grain synthesis,etc. Also its royalty free!!!

My quota too small for 4K stream T_T

and content provider will just use lower bitrate settings and those new codec requires twice compute power to decode/encode and we are needing new hardware for hardware decoder/encoder.
to my eye, implementing new codec benefits cooperation more, as for consumer, it helps people who dont have fast enough internet connection

Agree, for right now we need to use software decoding, videolan is in development for a optimized av1 decoder called dav1d
Here some performance test people did with the reference decoder and with dav1d https://www.reddit.com/r/AV1/comments/aqzqf...mance_20190215/

Looking forward for the AV1 video codec, and I think hardware supporting AV1 decoding will be released around next year.
