In the new kernel, it is already possible to play movies using AV1 code

push("av1-main-L20-dash-cbcs-prk"); push("av1-main-L21-dash-cbcs-prk"); push("av1-main-L30-dash-cbcs-prk"); push("av1-main-L31-dash-cbcs-prk"); push("av1-main-L40-dash-cbcs-prk"); push("av1-main-L41-dash-cbcs-prk"); push("av1-main-L50-dash-cbcs-prk"); push("av1-main-L51-dash-cbcs-prk");

baybe max 1080P

When the movie is playing, the priority of each code is av1 > vp9 > avchigh > avc

Is AV1 better than the other codecs though? I mean we explicitly added options to disable VP9 and AVC High because the bitrates are lower, so I'm wondering if AV1 is actually an improvement over VP9 or AVC High.

Either way, thanks for the tip, I might add an option to enable AV1 in the near future.

Netflix thinks AV1 is great and has started deploying https://netflixtechblog.com/bringing-av1-streaming-to-netflix-members-tvs-b7fc88e42320

In fact I found that in some movies, avchigh can't stream, so I think that eventually AV1 will replace avchigh or even hevc
