    I’ve always kinda thought about implementing a software and standard for 1080p av1 on DVD. Would be neat as a project, obviously no commercial use would exist.

    Either way you can get some really impressive encodes out of av1, really neat tech.

        No that’s the idea, it would be to make a piece of software which if thrown on a sbc with a DVD drive becomes a player.

        Which really isn’t too far off of DVD and most bluray players.

        Though I wouldn’t be shocked if the super cheap DVD players have some sorta all-in-one integrated asic for most of the job.

        Would mostly be used by hobbiest making their own burned discs and small artists releasing stuff.

      That sounds interesting! I’ve been using AV1 more and more (thanks to SVT-AV1-PSY/-HDR and devs pushing improvements to main). Also enjoying FHD animated AVIF (vs ancient GIF, although gif.ski helps). AV1 video is not as soft as it once was (esp at high bitrates with synthetic film grain), and combined with OPUS audio, it’s all wonderful.
