The Xiph.Org project Rav1e to provide the fastest and safest AV1 encoder by leveraging the Rust programming language is ending out 2023 with a new feature release.

Rav1e 0.7 was released on Saturday to succeed the year-old Rav1e v0.6 series. The rav1e 0.7 update syncs up its Assembly code from that of the VideoLAN dav1d 1.2.1 project, adds more encoder-specific Assembly for both x86_64 and AArch64, provides many clean-ups and fixes, and there is an initial speed level re-balance.
