It's not weird, they have a stake in VVC - so unfortunately they seem to be pushing a FUD angle against the nascent, standardised AV1 in an attempt to make VVC look better.

I'd hoped for better from the BBC considering the quality of their iPlayer platform. As it is, from these barely veiled attacks I'm in doubt that they will use AV1 at all.

Has anyone tried using SVT-AV1 on AMD hardware yet, especially Threadripper 16-32 cores? I'm curious to see how far Intel specific optimisations gimp AMD performance.
