Yes, that's Pradeep Ramachandran, who runs the x265 development team (also known as pradeeprama)

Evolution of the AV1 codec between October 2016 and July 2017

http://wyohknott.github.io/image-for...omparison.html

I'll add another data point after bitstream freeze.

Clare, in your image comparison page, the old and the new AV1 images are completely identical. Other than that, it's a very useful page, much appreciated.

Wow. the new one is even worse than the old (which is pretty bad alread) on that factory image. Large almost flat areas.

@clare

could you add PIK ( https://github.com/google/pik ) in a next comparison ?

Unfortunately, i have to agree. AV1 still image encoding has improved in some regards (less ringing), but it smoothes a bit too much for my liking. In many cases the old AV1 looks better than the new in my opinion.

I've watched some images from here http://wyohknott.github.io/image-formats-comparison/
And yes, AV1 and HEVC don't retain fine details as much as Daala but they have less blocking though.

Yeah some guy from Mozilla asked for Pik too, but the thing seems to require a lot of CPU power and I just have a mobile CPU.

@Clare Here you go:
subset1 | subset2

Encoded with --distance 3 (maximum compression). Images are still larger than the ones used in your current comparison, especially the more compressible ones.

Demuxed 2017 videos are on their Youtube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIc...9UgUSTvWVNCmpA). Apparently the AV1 still image format will be called AVIF.

This is a screenshot from the October 5th Demuxed video in the post above this. Its a shame the version of x265 is old that they are comparing this to and no x264 to compare to.

Also, these aren't particularly great metrics for moving images; none of them include any temporal component to detect things like keyframe strobing.

DMOS is the gold standard of course, but is expensive and non-automatable. I would like to see at least VMAF scores, as VMAF looks to be the substantially best objective video metric available, at least for SDR <=1080p and >300 Kbps.

I am baffled by the use of such an old x265 build. Even in placebo it'll run a ton faster than the current AV1 reference implementation. So it'd be trivial to rerun the test at the same time the final tests for AV1 are done for a presentation like this.

Are the different command lines used for the different codecs listed somewhere?

In case anyone else was confused like I was, the still image format based on AV1 called AVIF is mentioned (briefly) in a video mostly on other topics, given by Netflix at the Demuxed conference, not in either of the two videos that mention AV1 in their titles:

A timecoded link would have been nice. Or a mention of what was said. Not everyone has time for these long-ass videos.

It's at 1:30 through to about 4 minues though it pretty much only says "We expect to have a new image format based on [AV1] called AVIF" and about 3 minutes makes clear this is just a I-Frame of AV1 and aimed towards distribution rather than storage.

AV1 status update talk from Gstreamer conference, very similar content to the Demuxed talk.

A PhD-level internship for working on AV1 at Mozilla is open for applications:

Hope not too many issues crop up in the reference implementation due to the final rush to get things done.
