VVC and AV1 also share a number of pixel-banging routines, so again it isn't completely different transistor sections on the die. It'll be the one programmable video decode engine, different microcode for each codec they want to support.

I am in need to upgrade my HTPC but I have been waiting for some thing that is affordable but supports AV1 decode of 4K@24/10bit. The Xbox S might be just the ticket if it is possible to reinstall it with Linux.
It is really unfortunate that there is no AV1 encode from ether vendor this round. It seems I have to upgrade my graphics card on my work PC every single time they release a new series of graphics cards. I was hoping I could get in on this round and skip the next for a change but it looks like I will have to upgrade this year and again next year.

I don't have anything 4K. I think 4K is next to useless outside of text and photo editing. I play games and I don't want to spend the GDP of California on a GPU and electricity costs to do so. Also, in the choice of framerate or resolution I pick framerate. I'd rather have 2K or 1080p 60 smooth or 45-140 FreeSync versus the 30 smooth or 20-60 FreeSync I might get at 4K.

I can visit it from the terminal if I want to.
Anyway, I normally visit it from Linux, but even if I do it from Windows or Android I don't think it's anybody's business.
Have a nice day!
