Add an alpha channel for AV1 and SVT-AV1 #219

Open subof opened 3 months ago

subof commented 3 months ago

Hi, It is now possible to use VP9, but why not add an alpha channel to AV1 codecs to make the archived files even smaller? Thanks

Because the alpha channel is not supported with the AV1 codec. Paul.

Perhaps it should be a separate layer in the format.webm, not in the codec itself.
