Hey, do you know if i can encode with NVENC AV1 with an RTX 2060? I tried and it crashed, so i just assumed it works from the 3xxx series and later, but i'm not sure.
Hi. Unfortunately, RTX 2000 & RTX 3000 series of GPUs don't have NVENC AV1 encoder in them. AV1 is only supported in RTX 4000 series of GPUs. However, RTX 3000 can decode AV1 content, which means they can playback AV1 videos up to 8K60 videos.
SVT-AV1 is so much better. 0:24 you cannot even read red text on NVENC while its perfectly clear on SVT-AV1. After you respawn you get text box on bottom of the screen - once again perfectly clear on SVT-AV1 and blurry mess on NVENC - you cant even see that red "OFF". VMAF result is very close tho and this example is a great way why VMAF is completely unreliable outside of traditional films. Anime, gameplays, screen captures are giving completely flawed VMAF results and you need to judge by own eye. It is not important if bricks in game are more detailed if text readability is like on 240p.
Exactly! when I was doing the tests, I had to redo a lot of them because the VMAF scores were so close that I couldn't believe them. It's a great example of not relying on VMAF solely.
@@ExtremelySimplified but when I'm screen recording using OBS, the SVT uses more CPU compare to AOM. The SVT almost 100% of my CPU while the AOM around 15% of my CPU. BTW, my CPU is AMD Ryzen 7600x.

excellent comparison and info, great details in the description. thanks for this it's very helpful for people just learning (like me hehe)
You're welcome.

@@ExtremelySimplified Many thanks
what is VMAF?
VMAF is a tool developed by Netflix to determine the quality of videos. It's not accurate though.
SVT-AV1 is so much better.

i mean yeah, that is a really fair point but it takes 6x longer to encode
is there an alternative to vmaf?
which is better in quality at the same bitrate, AOM AV1 or SVT AV1?
AOM is definitely better.
@@ExtremelySimplified I'm confused. If AOM is better in quality at the same bitrate, why did you use the SVT AV1 instead of AOM AV1?
Because it takes much much more time to encode compared to SVT.

@@ExtremelySimplified But for my screen recodings using OBS, the SVT takes so much CPU load around 85% while AOM takes only around 15%.
