Hm. I'm doing something wrong and I don't know what. Can't get it to use more than 4GB RAM for 720p footage. What settings do you use for encoding?
AV1
>0.1 fps
Waaaaaa so this is the power of... AV1
When Intelav1v?
can someone explain why everyone is so sure that AV1 will ever get fast enough?
what if their algorithm is just computionally worse than the competition?
b-but muh 50% size reduction
I hope he is. I love dedicated people.
>what if their algorithm is just computionally worse than the competition?
Oh, it is. Every new video codec is more complex than the prior generation. VVC and AV2 will be even worse than AV1.
However codec development is a slow and complex process. It's not as black and white as many Jow Forumsentoomen want you to believe. Reference encoders in general are a bad way to judge a standard. They have a lot of unnecessary shit included to allow for testing and experiments and are usually not tailored towards end users. That's why people stop using them at some point in favor of more optimized encoders. And even when you look at those optimized encoders there will be grave differences. Just look up HEVC encoder performances if you don't believe me.
It's a reference encoder. They're all like that.
>can someone explain why everyone is so sure that AV1 will ever get fast enough?
That depends on what you mean by "fast enough". The point most people are making is just that it will get a lot faster.
x265 got fast yet?
How do I watch AV1 on Linux, tho? Chromium works, but it's embarrassing to use it as a video player. I use SMPlayer+mpv, test video has SMPlayer dropping frames hard.
