  • Describe the issue

Right now gstreamer1-plugin-dav1d doesn't seem to get installed by default. This package provides the by far best AV1 SW-decoder for Gstreamer and missing it means that AV1 playback is much slower than it should be (using aom instead), if no AV1 HW-decoders are present.

  • When do you need this? (YYYY/MM/DD)

Fedora 42 would be great :)

  • When is this no longer needed or useful? (YYYY/MM/DD)

Never/unknown

  • If we cannot complete your request, what is the impact?

AV1 video playback with e.g. the default video player in Gnome and other apps is comparatively poor on many setups.

You can send a pull request to add it to the multimedia group for f42 at https://pagure.io/fedora-comps. :smile:

Ah nice, opened https://pagure.io/fedora-comps/pull-request/1080

We can likely close this one as the changes are happening elsewhere. Thanks for the report.

Thanks, if there is a releng involvement required please reopen this ticket!
