I will give an announcement if I ever retire from the encoding space. If I ever disappear without notice, assume I either died or Hollywood got me.

About AV1:
AV1 is a modern, open, and royalty-free video codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media (AOMedia) that is the successor to VP9 and promises to deliver 30% less bitrates for the same quality compared to H.265/HEVC and 50% compared to H.264/AVC respectively. Unlike HEVC, you can play and stream AV1 on common browsers such as Google Chrome

due to AV1 being a new codec, a modern video player with the latest version of the AV1 decoder is needed to reach maximum playback performance with minimal lag, such as MPV or VLC.
