SVT-AV1 Encoding Guide

Open source encoders

• AOMEnc[^4]. Developed by AOM, reference encoder with most features and highest quality.
• SVT-AV1. Developed by Intel, production ready encoder with high performance and optimized for parallelism.
• Rav1e. Developed by Mozilla/Xiph, used by Vimeo[^1].

Since all these tools are stil being actively developed, you should always use the newest versions and compile the standalone encoders yourself if necessary.
