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.

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.

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.

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

Please support the AV1 codec so that streams have a better quality with lower bitrates.

Definitely would be interested in this!

Is it planned that Twitch will support the AV1 codec in the near future?
OBS, Nvidia and AMD support the AV1 codec.
I know that Twitch has already done AV1 tests: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/637388605 -

I second this. Would love the opportunity to do some early testing with twitch to help in ironing out any issues related to streaming with AV1 and viewing it as a live stream. Please make a way we can sign up and help with this.

New NVIDIA graphics cards now support the new AV1 codec, add streaming support in AV1, since you don't want to increase the bitrate, at least add a new codec that will improve the quality stream at the same bitrate!

Hi, it's about time to move forward, i can see we have the ability to stream in 1440p but we can't increase the bitrate. Solution: AV1 encoding or please increase the bitrate for 1440p streams, thank you
