I noticed that Kdenlive supports the AOM AV1 encoder, but not the SVT-AV1 encoder at the moment. The AOM encoder is dreadfully slow, taking two hours to render 90 seconds of footage on my computer, but supposedly the SVT-AV1 encoder is faster. I was wondering whether we might get SVT-AV1 support some day, or if there’s some kind of barrier preventing that?
Oh, interesting. I’m using the Kdenlive flatpak, and while I find flatpaks to be pretty inscrutable (meaning I can’t check this to make sure), I would assume it’s using a fairly up-to-date version of ffmpeg.
No. That’s an Nvidia codec, isn’t it? I use an AMD card, so I don’t think NVENC is going to work for me.
