Hi,
I’m trying the AV1 support with a few samples and one of them is stuttering at some points. Namely this one :
It is a very high bitrate sample and as a matter of fact - it stutters on my i7-4710HQ laptop too. At the point of stutter the bitrate goes as high as 30-36mbps, so my question is : is it that the sample just tops the hardware limits of my ATV 4K or it is something that can be fixed software side ?
Correct. AV1 support is limited to software-based decoding right now, so some of the extreme examples may not play very well on the current Apple TV hardware.
It may be my imagination, but the AV1 samples seem to play better in the latest versions. Is that a firecore improvement or is Apple implementing changes to improve AV1 performance?
