There is a deeper issue which is worth pointing out—we should all be relying less on licensed codecs—but we do not live in that world and this is screwing people over now.
@ernie where do you actually use and rely on HEVC?
I just found that since #Android 14 handheld devices must support #AV1 encoding and decoding to be called Android device. At least if I understand https://source.android.com/docs/compatibility/14/android-14-cdd (search for "video encoding") correctly.
