I guess only time will tell.

AV1 is supposed to be 30% better than HEVC and they claim H.266 is 50% better than HECV. This would mean that H.266 is roughly 30% better than AV1. By better I'm always referring to the bandwidth/space needed.

But take this with more than a grain of salt since bandwidth/space are only one of many things that matter and also these comparisons are dependent on so many things like resolution, material (animatic/real), etc. etc.

I don't think your math adds up. Is 150 30% better than 130? It is only 14% better.

Regardless, these early performance claims are most likely complete bullshit.

It’s about size: 50 is about 30% better than 70, which is 30% better than 100.

AV1 is supposed to be 30% better than HEVC Source? If I recall correctly HEVC outperform AV1
