AV1 decode is supported on all rdna 2 gpu, has amd not implemented driver support yet?
It's like a GT 1030, but with an impertinent price tag. Well, at least the 1030 could decode VP9 at its time, whereas the 6500 XT can't decode AV1 more than one year after cards which already could. This is really pathetic by AMD. The 6600 XT was already bad, but they are just out of bounds with the 6500 e-waste.

RX 6500/XT hardware apparently doesn't support it: https://www.amd.com/en/products/graphics/amd-radeon-rx-6500-xt
AV1 has been working since the first drivers on other RDNA2 GPUs.

200$ (probably sold as 300$) budget card . Good times
Turns out these cards don't support AV1 Decode or HVEC Encode either. Kind of weird to segment those features off of budget cards.

Strange , could be a typo beige goby (code name for the navi 24 die ) is listed as vcn3.0 here,

Maybe the silicon is broken? as of right now technically av1 support would be enabled for it on linux unless I missed something
