Implement AV1 video codec and Opus audio codec
We all know that AVC has issues with efficiency an HEVC is basically dead.
A more modern codec would not only be great for streamers and high definition content, it would also potentially reduce the load on the servers.
Benefits with AV1:
- It's open source so no license costs like HEVC
- It's much more efficient than AVC and even HEVC
Benefits of Opus:
- Basically the same as AV1

Firefox, Chrome and Edge already support AV1, and Twitch talked about using it, starting in a few years.
Opus would be a good addition.
