av1 encoding quality 2

AV1 encoding quality has been impressive in my experience, especially at lower bitrates where it keeps detail and clarity that would be heavily artifacted with h.264. It does require more processing power to encode, but the resulting files are smaller for the same perceived quality, which is great for archiving and streaming.
