Hi, this is an attempt to fix #908 as AV1 encoded files are pretty common nowadays. My assumption is that there is no av1 decoder available in the official wheel as the same works just fine using opencv-python from ArchLinux build against their ffmpeg build.
On Windows av1 decoding works but not on Linux using the official wheels. I am not sure but I assume there is some kind of fallback mechanism which then uses Windows-native frameworks for decoding which is not available on Linux hence it fails on Linux using ffmpeg backend.
Didn't adjust the arm images yet, wanted to get some feedback first if I'm going in the right direction here. Waiting for the CI to run through to create a wheel I can test if this actually fixes the issue 🤞
edit: looks like CI doesn't run without approval by maintainers, so changed to ready-for-review
