+ <h3 id="pr8.1">March 16th, 2026, FFmpeg 8.1 <span title="Sir Charles Antony
Richard Hoare">"Hoare"</span></h3>
+ <p>
+ A new minor release, <a href="download.html#release_8.1">FFmpeg 8.1 <span
title="Sir Charles Antony Richard Hoare">"Hoare"</span></a>,
+ is now available for download. Here are some of the highlights:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Decoders: xHE-AAC Mps212 (experimental) MPEG-H decoding via
libmpeghdec</li>
+ <li>EXIF Metadata Parsing</li>
+ <li>LC-EVC: support for parsing and forwarding metadata</li>
+ <li>Vulkan compute-based codecs: ProRes encoding and decoding, DPX
decoding</li>
+ <li>D3D12: D3D12 H.264/AV1 encoding, scale_d3d12, mestimate_d3d12,
deinterlace_d3d12 filters</li>
+ <li>Rockchip H.264/HEVC hardware encoding</li>
+ <li>IAMF: Projection mode Ambisonic Audio Elements muxing and demuxing</li>
+ <li>Formats: hxvs demuxer</li>
+ <li>Filters: drawvg, vpp_amf</li>
+ </ul>
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ This release also features a lot of internal changes. swscale's rewrite is
continuing to progress, thanks to the STF, with numerous
+ optimizations, backend changes, and support for Vulkan scaling. The Vulkan
code is undergoing an initiative to remove the runtime
+ dependency on GLSL compilers, with all the compute-based codecs already
ported to compile-time GLSL, along with several filters.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ A companion post about the Vulkan Compute-based codec implementations has
been published on the
+ <a href="https://www.khronos.org/blog/";>Khronos blog</a>. Written by Khronos
member and maintainer of the
+ FFmpeg Vulkan code, Lynne, it features the innovations made it possible to
widely deploy complete codecs running on GPUs,
+ and future plans for more codec implementations.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ We recommend that users, distributors, and system integrators to upgrade
unless they use current git master.
+ </p>
