Comment (by jb510):

 Glad to see HDR being talked about. AVIF Animation probably also needs
 through discussion. I'm personally unclear if ImageMagick properly
 supports AVIF animation or not.

 Finally, a minor note:

 I know video is probably a little off-topic here, but should someone
 reference these stats in the future it's worth noting that WebM is a
 container (like .mp4), not a codec like the others listed here. WebM most
 commonly contains VP8 or VP9 encoded video, but it can now also contain
 AV1 encoded video.
