When can we expect to receive AV1 decoding support? I believe FFMpeg has been capable of it since the latter half of 2019.

I understand. And I see now there’s a better place for me to post about it. It seems like quite a glaring omission, but I’ll post about it in the appropriate thread[s]. Thank you for your response and have a good day.

You can simply edit this post and choose the category to move it, rather than add a new thread.

You can add your vote to the feature request:

> [@\[Implemented\] Add support for av1 coding standard](https://forums.plex.tv/t/add-support-for-av1-coding-standard/556253):
>
> YouTube has begun rolling out the av1 coding standard on its videos. At least one video downloader passes this through to the final file, making it incompatible with Plex until converted to a compatible format (can be done with VLC). Adding this open, royalty-free video coding format, would retain compatibility going forward
