== AV1 Standards Overview ==

The AV1 video compression format is developed by the Alliance for Open Media (AOMedia) as a successor for VP9. AV1 developement considered hardware specification resulting in a codec balance in compression performance and hardware feasibility.

An AV1 coded video is comprise of one or more temporal units. Each temorar unit is fed with a sequence of OBUs of different types like: Sequence Header, Temporal Delimiter, Frame Header, Tile Group, Metadata, Frame, Redundant Frame Header, Tile List and Padding. Each OBU contains a header and a payload byte, the header indicates the type of OBU and specifies the payload size.

The image below shows the structure of a temporal unit, where each one can have a sequence of one or more frame headers followed by zero or more tile group.

The GstObuMetadata plugin focuses on the OBU Metadata which carries information of different types such as high dynamic range, scalability, and timecode.
