svt-av1

brew install svt-av1 v4.1.0 BSD-3-Clause

Fast AV1 video encoder library and command-line tool written in C.

Why you might care

SVT-AV1 is optimized for speed and efficiency, making it ideal for high-throughput encoding workflows where standard encoders are too slow. Use it as a build dependency for video applications, or directly via CLI for batch AV1 encoding. It's actively maintained by the Alliance for Open Media and offers good quality-to-speed tradeoffs.
