A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

This is a little misleading. There is nothing fundamental about AV1 that makes it hard to decode, support is just not widespread yet (mostly because it is a relatively new codec).
I mean, given that many devices do not support accelerating it, it is in practice "hard to accelerate" unless you add a new gfx card or buy a new device.
I may not have worded it optimally (2L speaker), but I am sure it was fairly clear what I meant. 🙂
I wouldn't call a nail hard to use because I don't have a hammer. Yes, you need the right hardware, but there is no difference in the difficulty. But I understand what you are trying to say, just wanted to clarify that it wasn't hard, just not widespread yet.
Fair point.
