    Yeah you’re going to need HW acceleration to encode AV1 on your server “without issues”.

    Theres a world of difference between something that’s technically possible and something that will just work without issues of any kind. Something being “good enough” implies the existence of caveats. Mainly being that’d be a shitty experience lol.

      Sure, but most people don’t need encode. The start of this thread talks about encoding, but the person you replied to didn’t specify. My guess is they’re just talking about playback.

        The person they’re replying to was talking specifically about their Plex server and how av1 causes problems with it. If their Plex server is the thing that is having trouble with AV1, then it’s encode.
