I personally recommend the **[mpv media player](https://thewiki.moe/tutorials/mpv)**, but [MPC-HC](https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc/releases) or [VLC](https://www.videolan.org/vlc) also support AV1 playback. ___ | Comparisons / Screenshots | MediaInfo | Direct Download | | :--: | :--: | :--: | | [SlowPics - Reza (source) vs. Encode](https://slow.pics/c/UHPPps5D) | [EP 01](https://bin.disroot.org/?2ad0be283fa0ea23#7iAP9TTAWeLzgv65gm3YC315DQ42TJn9j8TAbQUFRLDP) | [Anime Tosho](https://animetosho.org/view/rigav1-ghost-stories-bd-1080p-av1-opus-dual.n1974032) w/ attachments | ___
