I wish they had not written it in Rust. It makes it nearly impossible to add it to CinGG for all of the different distros. We have enough speaking languages in the world already and no one is inventing more of those so why do we need to invent another programming language? Why didn't they just write it in APL? ha, ha. Even though the article below says that the encoder in ffmpeg is now usable and it is dated March 4, 2019, I don't see it as being usable at all still: https://www.streamingmedia.com/Articles/ReadArticle.aspx?ArticleID=130284 A 90 second video rendered with av1 took 49 minutes.
