Pixelation during AV1 Playback

  • Hello, I'm experiencing significant video pixelation when I try to playback AV1 encodes. Happens for both HDR and non-HDR files. Audio seems to be fine. I'm using an Intel 11th gen iGPU and Kodi 20 so I thought everything should work. Do I need to install any additional codec add-ons or something?

    Edited once, last by sigg5: added full debug logs (March 2, 2023 at 5:43 PM).

  • I can reproduce this with AV1 10-bit video. Probably some issue with Intel media-driver and/or ffmpeg.

    As a workaround you can disable AV1 hardware decoding (Player -> Use AV1 VAAPI -> off).
