In 2018, the Alliance for Open Media released its next-generation Video Codec AV1. One year after thanks to the work done in dav1d and its adoption AV1 can be decoded in software nearly everywhere and with requirements not dissimilar for decoding HEVC. In 2020 we have hardware decoders for the newer GPUS. ARM is an architecture famous for its ubiquitous deployment in the low-power, mobile devices and for some new entries in the server and HPC market. Now, with Apple spearheading it, the ARM will see even wider adoption in the laptop market and larger offers in the cloud market will come from Amazon, Packet.com and other players. We will talk on how well AV1 runs on ARM. We will talk a little about dav1d We will talk a lot about rav1e, libaom and SVT-AV1 We will discuss what’s missing to make AV1 shine on ARM.
