Frequently Asked Questions

What is AV1 codec?

AV1 (AOMedia Video 1) is an open, royalty-free codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media (Google, Mozilla, Netflix, Apple, and others). It offers ~30% better compression than VP9 and ~50% better than H.264.

Do all browsers support AV1?

Chrome 70+, Firefox 67+, and Edge 79+ support AV1 software decoding. Safari 17+ added AV1 support. Hardware decode is available on newer GPUs (Intel 11th gen+, NVIDIA RTX 30+, AMD RX 6000+). Use feature detection and provide VP9 fallback.

Why is the AV1 file only 5MB at 1080p?

AV1's superior compression algorithm achieves the same visual quality at significantly lower bitrates. This 5MB AV1 file at 1080p would require ~7MB with VP9 or ~10MB with H.264 for equivalent quality.
