A new AVX2 code path for FFmpeg's VVC decoding "vvcdec" is helping provide significant speed-ups for CPU-based H.266 decoding.
Open-source developer Nuo Mi has landed new optical flow AVX2 code for FFmpeg's VVC decode support within libavcodec. Up to 15% better performance is reported thanks to this optional AVX2 usage.
Advanced Vector Extensions 2 as a reminder has been around since Intel Haswell and AMD Excavator, allowing any remotely recent AMD / Intel processor to benefit from this faster VVC decode.
Those curious about this new AVX2 optimization for the VVC decode in FFmpeg can see [1]this commit for the details.
