Looks like AMD is now approximately par with Intel and Nvidia on the hardware encoders for most stream-quality real-time video encoding.

      Unfortunately YouTube is one of the only large platforms currently accepting AV1 ingest, so most places you’re still stuck with H.264, or maybe H.265 if you’re lucky :(

            Not a scheme I suppose.

            But regardless of account age, the default streaming options are limited.

            Or rather your bitrate is hard capped + no “guaranteed” transcoding for mobile viewers etc. Only “sometimes”. Unless you are a partner.

            But have to be an affiliate first lol.

    Someday Qualcomm will stop being annoying and get AV1 decoders in all their chips and we can all move on from h.264
