- threeseed 9y agoAlso don't buy a PS4, Xbox, GoPro, Sony/Canon/Panasonic camera etc. Or watch TV in Europe or Japan. H.265 has been ahead for a number of years so obviously quite a few products exclusively support it.
- lern_too_spel 9y agoMicrosoft[1] and Sony[2] devices support VP9, and there is no reason to believe they won't support AV1 as well. GP was obviously talking about consuming video, so GoPro isn't relevant.

- threeseed 9y agoThe PS4, XBox and the Sony range of cameras do not support VP9. Not sure why you brought up Edge and Android TVs.
- lern_too_spel 9y agoPS4 Pro supports VP9[1] as does XBox One X[2]. The point is that all of these companies now support VP9 in their consumer video consumption devices and will support free codecs going forward. Apple is the only holdout.
