Surprised even MPEG-5 EVC made it. Unfortunately the VVC Decoder didn't quite make it ( Edit : Officially ) . I guess we will have to wait until version 7.1. Still waiting for x266.
- gyan 3y agoVVC decoder is available, but it's flagged as experimental, so you have to prefix `-strict experimental` before the VVC input `-i`.
- ksec 3y agoThanks Yes I meant officially. Was hoping the we could set stage for VVC little earlier. I know VVC is not popular on HN or literally anywhere on Internet but I do hope to see it moving forward instead of something like MPEG-5 EVC which is somewhat dead in the water.
- cm2187 3y agoI don't know that having so many codecs is a good thing unless they really add something. How does it compare to av1 (which I was under the impression is coming to be the natural successor of hevc, with hardware support)?
- ksec 3y agoComparing to AV1, VVC / H.266 is expected to offer 20-30% reduction in Bit-Rate with similar quality at similar level of computational complexity. And it is already deployed and used in real world in China and India. I believe Brazil are looking to use it as their next generation codec for broadcasting along with LCEVC.

- drmpeg 3y agoAnd ATSC 3.0 will also be using VVC. https://prdatsc.wpenginepowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/A345-2024-03-VVC.pdf https://prdatsc.wpenginepowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/...
- kierank 3y agoVVC is marked as experimental as fuzzing continues on it.
- itvision 3y agoThe built-in VVC decoder is dreadfully slow (a ton of optimizations are missing), VVdec is at least 2-3 times faster on anything having AVX2/SSE4. If you really want to give VVC a try, better stay with version 6.1.1 as it's the last one which has patches for enabling VVdec. You won't be able to apply them to version 7.0/git master: https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvenc/wiki/FFmpeg-Integration https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvenc/wiki/FFmpeg-Integrati...
