Does AV1 codec support hardware decoding?

[Surun]

Hello.

If Gpu or Cpu supported AV1 codec, webrtc core support hardware decoding?

I wonder if av1 is decoded in code

Thank you

WebRTC provides hardware codecs only for Android (almost all known codecs, including VP8/VP9/H264) and iOS (H264 only). 

For Android devices it mostly depends from model/vendor & OS version: https://chromium.googlesource.com/external/webrtc/+/HEAD/sdk/android/src/java/org/webrtc/MediaCodecUtils.java.

Desktop versions of WebRTC (MacOS/Windows/Linux) supported only software (CPU-based) codecs, but provides possibility for customization of video decoders factory - and you able to implement AV1 HWA decoder yourself, for each required OS
