Progress on implementing the pause feature in AV1 encoding options?

In other encoders, the pause feature is universally supported, so why doesn’t AV1 support it yet? From a user’s perspective, it’s inconsistent enough to mistakenly assume there is no pause feature at all.

There was previously a post stating that you’d reach out to the developers regarding this issue; could I possibly get an update on its progress? I’ve been waiting for a year. It would be helpful to know clearly if this feature will never be implemented or if there’s an intention to add it in the future.

This is still in the works and on the list for the team.

I do not have more of an update than that at this time. Will try and follow up with them this week to see where this stands.
