Comment on AOMedia Will Be Talking More About The AV2 Video Codec Later This Month
bayleaf@piefed.ca 1 day agoMy problem with AV1 is that so many people I talk to in real life about it think I'm mispronouncing AVI (Audio Video Interleave), the old container format that was popular in the 90s and early 2000s. I tell them it's a video codec and they act all surprised like H.264 and H.265 are the only ones in existence.

Are you sure that’s many people? Outside of the few tech savvy people I know, most lay people have no clue what h.264/5 are either. They know mp3 and that just means digital music to them.
