AV1? that's a codec, right? I see in the preferences section for Piped. Is better than AVC (h.2640)?

Yes, AV1 is the next big deal. You can compress the hell out of the video and it still looks near original. I've re-encode some of my locally ripped movies for fun to see how it looks and it's really impressive.

it still looks near original.

Presumably you know, but for anyone else: the word for this is "transparent." It's when the codec leaves no noticeable artifacts.

Yeah, from the re-encodes I've done, I only noticed artifacts in clouds and the New Line Cinema intro to lord of the Rings
