Patents on software shouldn’t exist!

I agree. It‘s the only way to actually overcome capitalism. Same rules for all is important of course.

Come to Europe, then :)
Screw Dolby. I’ll only ever encode in AV1 and in the future AV2. HEVC won’t ever be ubiquitous like h.264 and VVC has already had support dropped by Intel processors after only one generation of hardware support. 6 years after the standard was finalized and VVC is still practically non-existent in consumer hardware
Til Intel had and dropped support for VVC. Also TIL it’s 6 years old I thought it was still in active development.
Rather, the AV1 specification was developed after many foundational video coding patents had already been filed, and AV1 incorporates technologies that are also present in HEVC.
Like file()
Maybe I should just reencode all my stuff in VVC 😮💨
The title is a bit misleading. What does that mean for the future of AV1?
if Dolby wins, everyone implementing AV1 (or maybe just parties that profit from it?) will have to pay Dobly royalties, even though AV1 is royalty-free
