    Is AV1 the ultimate codec?

    Its open-source, its really efficient and can be direct-played on almost anything, is there any reason to use anything else, are there any downsides?

    Its only drawback is that it is not widespread enough, as it only has hardware acceleration on the latest GPU (Intel Xe, 2020) and SoC (Snapdragon 8 Gen2, 2022; Apple A17 Pro, 2023) chips. But its main competitor, HEVC, is generally available on post-2016 devices.

    JF 10.9 already supports transcoding to AV1 using software and hardware, and the only client currently available is browser/web. You can give it a try.
