Amlogic S805X2, S905X4, and S908X AV1 Full HD/4K/8K Media Processors to Launch in 2020

in embedded •  5 years ago 


AOMedia AV1 open, royalty-free video codec has come a long way since it was first introduced in 2016, and we've recently seen AV1 hardware video decoding integrated into higher-end STB SoCs such as Broadcom BCM7218X or Realtek RTD1311/RTD1319 processors.

But AV1 codec is also coming to lower-cost media processors as shown by Amlogic 2020 roadmap below.
