SVT-AV1 is an AV1 open-source codec initiated by Intel and Netflix, which provides codec performance levels suitable for a variety of applications, from video-on-demand to live streaming encoding and transcoding.
Designed to provide high-quality, high-performance AV1 encoding, SVT-AV1 is part of the Scalable Video Technology (SVT) family of encoders that exploits the parallel processing capabilities of modern multi-core CPUs to provide real-time encoding and decoding.
AV1 is a next-generation video coding format developed by the Alliance of Open Media Video (AOMedia). It is open and free. It is designed for ultra-high-definition resolution, wide color gamut and high dynamic range enhancement. Based on VP9/HEVC, the coding efficiency is increased by about 30%. AV1 is being used to replace Google’s VP9 and compete with H.265/HEVC. As one of the founding members of the Open Media Video Alliance, Intel has done a lot of work in the promotion of AV1, making it easier for content providers and end users to accept the new generation of video encoding formats.
