  • Containerizing AOM AV1 and encoding videos with FFmpeg in an Node.js app
    2 projects | dev.to | 27 Nov 2023
    I have recently had the opportunity to work and study the AV1 Codec by AOM (Alliance for Open Media). It is the state-of-the-art video codec for manipulating videos today, and it is stunning how it is able to compress videos producing files with reduced size and a pretty much untouched quality (I will later do a small comparison with the ancestor AVC/H.264 by MPEG). And since I am a big, better huge fan of FFmpeg I cannot step back from compiling a fully working FFmpeg binary within a container image. Later I will describe how I achieved that and how it can be used within a Node.js application.

    How so? The AV1 specification is available as an official download on the public internet. The specification points to https://aomedia.org/license/ for licensing information. There's no need to sign anything in order to make use of AV1, as permission is granted to make use of AV1 with conditions.
