is there already an av2 encoder for ffmpeg?

[jbk]

No, since the format is not final.

[simlevesque]

Then how can there be a decoder if it's not final ?

[BoingBoomTschak]

The bitstream could be "final" without the coding tools being so.

You seem to be unfamiliar with the concepts of alpha and beta or other pre-release software. Seems a strange thing to be unfamiliar though in 2026

[saratogacx]

If you see the state of what is called "production quality" software these days, alpha/beta quality has lost most of its meaning. You now just wait for "next prod"

No, they're pointing out how the logic they're replying to is flawed.

If there can be a decoder, there can be an encoder.

it's a decoder of the current draft
