AV1 Encoding Support

AV1 encoding support should be a priority add to the website. AV1 encoding is a big improvement in visual quality to streams over CPU and GPU encoding options. Discord already added it, and I believe YouTube has it as well, it's very surprising to me that Twitch hasn't added this and there isn't even an ETA on it being added yet.

    We need to look for the future and we need AV1.

    It is no secret that H.264/AVC is now an outdated!

    I would like to enroll as well. A750 and ready to switch from YouTube. :)
  • Cryojenikx commented  ·   ·  Report

    Is the beta sign up still going ? If so count me in installed and configured ready to go.

    We know you guys (twitch) probably have alot of backend to deploy to enable av1 and to provide a pleasurable experience for all users, both creators and viewers alike, and all of us are here to help even if its internal testing for the time being to help bring this tech to light. Let us help you at least from an end user perspective. I wish you nothing but good luck in rolling this feature out. Its definitely a big change backend and frontend wise and not an easy one at that.

    RX 7900xtx user here. Would like to test it if possible.

  • Ivanchwelo commented  ·   ·  Report

    Please sign me up, I am able to stream with AV1 if it was possible right now

    AV1 has a great benefits for quality And bandwidth usage. I would really appreciate the possibility to opt-in to an early access for AV1.

    Furthermore I would instantly order a Intel ARC GPU for my Dual-PC Streaming Setup.
  • MadDogHux commented  ·   ·  Report

    I would just prefer to have AV1 support because of the bandwidth and quality benefits but enrolling for early access would be nice.

    It seems odd that Twitch isn't encouraging people to switch to better manage their bandwidth issues.

    I have a little bit of unstable internet connection for normal twitch encoding. AV1 would help me a lot and make it cheaper for server processing for you. plz enable it.

    Currently stream NVENC but have an AV1 card on standby. If they open a beta, I would enroll in a heartbeat.

    It will also free encoding ressources from your GPU, so your gaming experience is improved, too. For those who cannot wait, OBS supports it since autumn 2022.
  • Edropian commented  ·   ·  Report

    I would go and buy an ARC gpu in a heartbeat if I was to enroll on such a test!

    Today OBS officially released v29 in witch intel GPUs and 7xxx series amd cpus will be able to encode in AV1 and that is Huge!

    Hopefully twitch won't be slow to adapt again and we will be able to get there soon.

    As a streamer I am all in for helping towards that direction
