    I thought fixed hardware encoders were always lower in quality than software ones anyway. That’s my experience with h.264 in multiple contexts.

      While this is true, AV1 software encoding is so terribly slow that it’s completely impractical for anything remotely resembling live-streaming.

        That’s true. I guess I was being really reductive there.
