AOMedia panel revisits AV1 adoption and AV2 plans
This article is the second part of a webinar recap from AOMedia, focusing on a panel discussion about its AV1 and AV2 codecs. The discussion covered key milestones in AV1 adoption over the past decade.
Key Takeaways
- The article is part II of AOMedia’s webinar recap on AV1 and AV2.
- A panel discussion followed the earlier webinar segment covered last week.
- Grange answered a question about the key milestones in AV1 adoption.
- The discussion spans AV1 adoption over the last 10 years.
