Scalable Video Technology for AV1 (SVT-AV1 Encoder and Decoder)

The Scalable Video Technology for AV1 (SVT-AV1 Encoder and Decoder) is an AV1-compliant software encoder/decoder library. The work on the SVT-AV1 encoder targets the development of a production-quality AV1-encoder with performance levels applicable to a wide range of applications, from premium VOD to real-time and live encoding/transcoding. The SVT-AV1 decoder implementation targets future codec research activities.

The SVT-AV1 project was initially founded by Intel in partnership with Netflix, and was then adopted by the Alliance of Open Media (AOM) Software Implementation Working Group (SIWG), in August 2020, to carry on the group's mission.
