Alliance for Open Media (AOMedia)

“Vimeo turned to AV1, and, since adopting the codec, has been able to deliver higher-quality video for whatever bandwidth users have… Vimeo leverages AV1 to deliver better compression compared to legacy codecs like H.264, and AV1 also helps support features like HDR. Vimeo can seamlessly deliver HDR content with AV1, which is something that can’t be easily done with H.264.” ~ Vimeo Principal Video Codec Engineer Thomas Daede Hear more in Vimeo's #AV1 Adoption Story 📚 https://brnw.ch/21wXowX

 “The next two years are going to be key because we have good hardware decoders, very good software decoders, and very good software encoders. Hardware encoders are now becoming available for AV1. And again, AV1 has a 40% to 50% bitrate reduction for the same quality compared to H.264, which is quite massive." ~ VideoLAN President and Lead VLC Developer Jean-Baptiste Kempf Hear more in VideoLAN's #AV1 Adoption Story 📚 https://brnw.ch/21wXg03

“As more devices capable of handling advanced codecs like AV1 become available, we see a growing opportunity to save on data transmission costs, and the prospect of a video service streamlining its storage by reducing the number of formats it has to maintain becomes increasingly realistic.”  ~ Google Director of Product Management Matt Frost  Read more from Google's #AV1 Adoption Story 📚 https://brnw.ch/21wXa4b

“As far as public communications around AV1, mainly you see things from Netflix, YouTube, and Meta. So, I think that’s created a certain perception that it’s only feasible if you’re working on that scale. Things have changed, however. Now, even with a few thousand views, companies can save money over time. This technological advancement has made high-quality encoding accessible and financially viable for medium and smaller-scale companies, debunking the myth that it is only suitable for large-scale projects.”  ~ Bitmovin Technical Content Lead Andy Francis  Read more in Bitmovin's AV1 Adoption Story 📚 https://brnw.ch/21wX5Kf
