Timo Rothenpieler 5c288a44ad avcodec/nvenc: add AV1 encoding support
The encoder seems to be trading blows with hevc_nvenc.
In terms of quality at low bitrate cbr settings, it seems to
outperform it even. It produces fewer artifacts and the ones it
does produce are less jarring to my perception.

At higher bitrates I had a hard time finding differences between
the two encoders in terms of subjective visual quality.

Using the 'slow' preset, av1_nvenc outperformed hevc_nvenc in terms
of encoding speed by 75% to 100% while performing above tests.

Needless to say, it always massively outperformed h264_nvenc in terms
of quality for a given bitrate, while also being slightly faster.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.

Documentation

The offline documentation is available in the doc/ directory.

The online documentation is available in the main website and in the wiki.

Examples
