AFAIK, none of commercially-available hardware supports AV1 encode yet. I guess it is quite expensive to implement AV1 encoder. Edit: I meant no consumer hard

Edit: I meant no consumer hardware support it.
- shmerl 5y agoWell, RDNA3 GPUs aren't available yet either. But at some point encoders should become viable I suppose.
- wmf 5y agoIntel's upcoming DG2 has AV1 encode. https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-confirms-arctic-sound-m-data-center-gpu-features-dg2-processor https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-confirms-arctic-sound-m-da...
- kbumsik 5y agoThat is for data centers though. Oh I did a typo. There still is no consumer-grade product supports AV1 encode.
- aesh2Xa1 5y agoDG2 has a codename "Alchemist" and it's a mid-range card line that targets gamers, too. You're still right that there's no standard, consumer-focused card, but that's "yet" – the product is just launching later this year.
- klodolph 5y agoI wonder what the timeline is from “encoder appears in consumer chip” to “people use it for video calls”.

- brigade 5y agoI think it's negative for every major codec thus far, except maybe VP9 (did any videoconferencing apps use VP9?) H.263, H.264, VP8, HEVC, and AV1 certainly were all used by various videoconferencing apps before hardware blocks reached consumer devices.
- _joel 5y agoLinphone if you mess with it.
- SoapSeller 5y agoNvidia Orin(the SOC, successor to Xavier) that coming out this Q will have AV1 encoding(up to two streams of 4K60). One can assume next gen nvidia gpus(rumored for the end of this year) will have it as well.
