Google released today Chrome 70

Chrome 70 adds an AV1 decoder (it's enabled by default) to Chrome Desktop x86-64 based on the official bitstream specification. At this time, support is limited to “Main” profile 0 and does not include encoding capabilities. The supported container is MP4 (ISO-BMFF) (see From raw video to web ready for a brief explanation of containers).

To try AV1:
  • Update your stable Chome just type in the url: chrome://settings/help and restart Chrome
  • Go to the YouTube TestTube page.
  • Select "Prefer AV1 for SD" or "Always Prefer AV1" to get the desired AV1 resolution. Note that at higher resolutions, AV1 is more likely to experience playback performance issues on some devices.
  • Try playing YouTube clips from the AV1 Beta Launch Playlist.
  • Confirm the codec av01 in "Stats for nerds".
