You can check out this guide on how to encode AV1 using Av1an and Podman:

1. Install Podman on your system: Podman is a container engine that allows you to run containers without the need for a separate daemon. You can install Podman on Linux systems by following the installation instructions on the official Podman website.
2. Install Av1an in a Podman container: Av1an is a command-line tool for encoding and transcoding videos using AV1. You can create a Podman container with Av1an installed by running the following command: podman run -it --name av1an-container ghcr.io/darealshinji/av1an This command will download the Av1an container image and run it in interactive mode.
3. Encode your video using Av1an: Once the Av1an container is running, you can use the Av1an command-line tool to encode your video in AV1 format. You can use the following command to encode a video file named input.mp4: av1an -i input.mp4 -o output.av1 This command will start the encoding process and output the encoded video to a file named output.av1. And if you're new to Av1an and Podman, try DVDFab DVD All In One. It's user-friendly and can convert videos to AV1 easily.
