SVT-AV1 benchmark with settings of Encoder Mode: Preset 12, Input: Bosphorus 4K. EPYC 7543 was the fastest.

SVT-AV1 is a popular open-source AV1 encoder that happens to be developed by Intel, but even with AMD processors it still delivers a competitive fight. In fact, the AMD EPYC CPUs tested were coming out slightly ahead of the Intel Xeon Scalable processors.

The EPYC lead is more pronounced when looking at the value and power efficiency.

SVT-HEVC benchmark with settings of Tuning: 1, Input: Bosphorus 4K. EPYC 7513 2P was the fastest.

SVT-HEVC benchmark with settings of Tuning: 10, Input: Bosphorus 4K. EPYC 7713P was the fastest.

SVT-VP9 benchmark with settings of Tuning: VMAF Optimized, Input: Bosphorus 4K. EPYC 7713P was the fastest.

It was a similar story as well with the SVT-HEVC and SVT-VP9 video encode performance.

Kvazaar benchmark with settings of Video Input: Bosphorus 4K, Video Preset: Medium. EPYC 7513 2P was the fastest.

Kvazaar benchmark with settings of Video Input: Bosphorus 4K, Video Preset: Very Fast. EPYC 7513 2P was the fastest.

The Kvazaar open-source H.265 encoder heavily favored the AMD EPYC processors with the higher core counts.

uvg266 benchmark with settings of Video Input: Bosphorus 4K, Video Preset: Slow. EPYC 7513 2P was the fastest.

uvg266 benchmark with settings of Video Input: Bosphorus 1080p, Video Preset: Slow. EPYC 7513 2P was the fastest.

Looking at the uvg266 performance for that in-progress H.266 encoder was also showing strong video encoding/transcoding performance under EPYC Milan relative to Intel Xeon Scalable Ice Lake.
