AV1 codec #575

Open DavidAntonin opened 3 years ago

DavidAntonin commented 3 years ago

Hello, I have a new android box with AV1 codec support (S905X4 chipset) and there is no option to select AV1 codec. Only VP9 and AVC. Standart YouTube player plays AV1 codec without problem.

me too would like to have that option, quality wont be better over vp9 but files size is smaller, for example:

401 mp4 3840x1920 2160p 5268k , mp4_dash container, av01.0.12M.08@5268k, 30fps, video only, 414.22MiB 313 webm 3840x1920 2160p 7858k , webm_dash container, vp9@7858k, 30fps, video only, 617.81MiB

I don't have hw support for this codec and it will stop as it cannot play this format

Maybe to have checkboxes for available decoders (or automatic)

Maybe you can copy code from VLC? I downloaded sample videos from Youtube with av01 codec in various resolutions. On my FireTV 4k 1080p av01 runs fully smooth in VLC. Also 1440p works very well. 2160p is too much. Stuttering.

In SmartTubeNext av01 is not supported the toast tells me. At least software support should always be there, no? VLC shows that it is easily possible with my hardware.
