No excuse now. VP9 should be left in the dirt.

I distinctly remember Discord already supporting av1 and opus in 2020 if not 2019.

I think I'll stick with x264

Finally. I can post this for real instead of using an external host.

It's patent free so you don't need to pay to use it for your own website or product.

H.265 isn't properly supported on the web.

It gives the same quality for a smaller file size. If not an improvement, what would you call that?

And it's better supported these days than h265 now that there are decoding chips in phones, computers, etc.

You'll have to upgrade eventually. Tech evolves.

about higher quality per filesize I'm dubious on this one because at bitrate higher than 1mbps it falls down hard in perceived quality
only hardware encoder I know of are on nvidia gpus so it's a pain in the ass while encoding h265 is 100x faster
i'm already pissed having to use vp9 on 4chinks since that garbage is just as slow to encode as av1

If I'm going to encode a webm for 4chan vp9 gives better results than x264. I only use mp4 when it's a H264 source and the filesize is small enough to upload here without reencoding it

Firefox doesn't really have proper support for it. It's shit anyway.

brainlet question:
is there some tool i can feed a source video to, which after analyzing whatever in the source video spits out a string of numbers and letters i can copy and paste and have svt-av1 (or another av1 codec) create a near flawless or flawless av1 encode of the source?
i cannot be the first idiot to have asked for this so the chances should be extremely slim what bigbrains haven't come up with some tool doing exactly this already.
