AV1 Video Extension is the official AV1 codec available for Windows. Developed by Microsoft, it allows you to view content recorded with the AV1 codec, as well as encode it.

The AV1 codec is developed by the Alliance for Open Media, in which companies such as Google, Apple, and Microsoft participate. The codec is the successor to HEVC, offering better compression. As a result, higher quality can be obtained with the same file size. And with the same quality as HEVC, you can create files that take up less space. On average, it is 30% more efficient than HEVC when compressing 4K video.

The AV1 standard also has the advantage of being open. As a result, there are no royalties to pay for using or installing it, unlike HEVC. After installing it, you can watch AV1 encoded videos on streaming platforms. You can also play those stored on your hard drive through the Movies & TV app.

So, if your PC has a processor or graphics card capable of decoding AV1 content in hardware so that it consumes fewer resources and less power, you can download AV1 Video Extension to your Windows PC.
