Hey AV1 Enthusiasts, encoders, and newbies alike,

I remember being completely new to the world of multimedia codec technology, and being totally lost on where to begin learning. To address this, I've decided to create a server tailored toward new learners. If you're looking to deepen your knowledge of multimedia codecs, particularly AV1, or you believe you have valuable insights to share, we've got an amazing community waiting for you.

I am thrilled to invite you to the AV1 for Dummies Discord server, a place dedicated to demystifying the fascinating world of AV1 encoding & beyond. Whether you're a seasoned codec professional or just dipping your toes into this field, there's something here for everyone.

Alongside this, I'm publicly announcing the Codec Wiki, a place where you can read about anything codec-related for hours on end. This wiki aims to demystify the realm of multimedia compression while connecting codec enthusiasts to create a sink of knowledge for the benefit of everyone. It is still under heavy development, so please heed this as you take in the information available on the site. If you have any questions or concerns, the place to ask is in the AV1 for Dummies server.

What's in it for you?

  • ๐Ÿ“š Learning Resources: Access encoding tools, their developers, and an entire wiki dedicated to AV1 & other multimedia codecs.
  • ๐Ÿ’ฌ Engaging Conversations: Join lively discussions, ask questions, and share insights with fellow codec enthusiasts.
  • ๐Ÿง™โ€โ™‚๏ธ Expert Insights: Seasoned experts with rich codec experience are available to discuss your needs with you as you learn.
  • ๐ŸŽฒ Fun Challenges: Participate in codec-related contests and games to make learning enjoyable. (coming soon)
  • ๐Ÿ“Œ Organized Topics: We have dedicated channels to ensure focused discussions, and a forum for asking & answering burning questions.

We're all about respect and open-mindedness, creating a safe space for everyone to learn and grow. Come say hello, introduce yourself, and be a part of our growing community!

Let's learn, explore, and master the intricacies of AV1 and multimedia codecs together. Join us at "AV1 for Dummies" & unlock the world of AV1!

See you there! ๐Ÿš€ ps: I posted this on Reddit as well, but this was not automatically also posted to Lemmy - I did that manually, as I like Lemmy more ;)
