I agree that it would be interesting with visual comparisons with other codecs. At this point though, h.264 is the only codec supported for playback in all browsers. And since h.264 is the codec that is most widely used today I would argue that it is still a relevant comparison, in order to get an understanding of what level of quality difference to expect when switching to xvc.

I created the following HEVC encoding using x265:

from the following commands:
x265-64bit-8bit-2018-01-22.exe --input tos.y4m --keyint 1080 --preset placebo --crf 34 tos_x265_124kbps.265
ffmpeg -i tos_x265_124kbps.265 -codec copy tos_x265_124kbps.mp4
File size: 375 KB

Perhaps someone from the AOM group would like to create an AV1-encoding for comparison?
The uncompressed y4m file is available here (114 MB):
