AV1 support

Recommended Posts

Is there an ETA on AV1 support for the iOS and tvOS apps? I have started to test-encode some classic movies (LotR, Harry Potter) to AV1-10bit since it's quite more space efficient than HEVC (and open-source, which is prefered).

1080p/10bit encodes play fine with Infuse6 on my iPhone 11 Pro and my iPad Pro 11" but emby is not allowing direct streaming the video.

It tries to transcode the video, which I have disabled.

Server is Version 4.6.0.1 beta
iOS app is the latest stable from the app store

Or do you mean Infuse? I guess they use dav1d to decode it using SW. iPhone gets warm but plays without frame drops.

@frk1337 the next update to our iOS and Apple TV apps will have built-in support for av1. Actually for iOS it will be two updates from now because we already have one in apple review. Thanks.
