What is dav2d?

dav2d is an AV2 cross-platform decoder, open-source, and focused on speed and correctness.

It is based on our popular dav1d decoder. It is a quite early project, should not be used in production, notably since the AV2 specification is not final.

This project is edited by VideoLAN as part of its membership by the Alliance for Open Media/AOM.

Goal and Features

The goal of this project is to provide a decoder for most platforms, and achieve the highest speed possible to overcome the temporary lack of AV2 hardware decoder. It will support all features from AV2, including all subsampling and bit-depth parameters. In the future, this project will host simple tools or simple wrappings.
