I have a Sony Bravia ZH8, and due to not having the AV1 codec I’m unable to display 8K videos, is there a way to side load the AV1 codec? The TV is stuck on Android 9, hasn’t had an update available since 2021.

I don't think the ZH8 can source 8k from its internal software, just over hdmi. I'm pretty sure the only thing that can source 8k is a pc with a modern gpu.
No, it's an hardware thing.
If manufactured limited cpu or tv model, nothing you can do, even with software. Have some Toshiba model not very old it limited in factory 😬
Do you have an 8K monitor?
tv panel is not the same like pc. they depend on hardware in the tv.
You can only software decode if hardware not support av1 decode.

This guy has some HEVC 8k if you want to test a few. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1TSdV36G_npDtjRJze54GEYpdxpBt7nCK
I guess it is a hardware limitation on your CPU model
