A Samsung codec, is APV... Their answer to ProRes RAW perhaps?

If you film on an Android smartphone, this could be significant. (There’s the bigger question of WHICH devices it’ll apply to, but that’s Android for you 🙃)
Camera and media updates Android 16 advances support for the playback, creation, and editing of high-quality media, a critical use case for social and productivity apps. Advanced Professional Video Android 16 introduces support for the Advanced Professional Video (APV) codec which is designed to be used for professional level high quality video recording and post production. The APV codec standard has the following features: • Perceptually lossless video quality (close to raw video quality) • Low complexity and high throughput intra-frame-only coding (without pixel domain prediction) to better support editing workflows • Support for high bit-rate range up to a few Gbps for 2K, 4K and 8K resolution content, enabled by a lightweight entropy coding scheme • Frame tiling for immersive content and for enabling parallel encoding and decoding • Support for various chroma sampling formats and bit-depths • Support for multiple decoding and re-encoding without severe visual quality degradation • Support multi-view video and auxiliary video like depth, alpha, and preview • Support for HDR10/10+ and user-defined metadata A reference implementation of APV is provided through the OpenAPV project. Android 16 will implement support for the APV 422-10 Profile that provides YUV 422 color sampling along with 10-bit encoding and for target bitrates of up to 2Gbps.
