Even in this poorly made comparison shot I made you can tell the difference between streaming and "self hosting" (lemmy.world)

AV1? that's a codec, right? I see in the preferences section for Piped. Is better than AVC (h.2640)?

Yes, AV1 is the next big deal. You can compress the hell out of the video and it still looks near original. I've re-encode some of my locally ripped movies for fun to see how it looks and it's really impressive.

I wonder if it's possible to re-encode from H.265/HEVC to AV1

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You can play in handbrake with AV1 encoding to see how it goes. I think I set the compression to 36 or something.

Thanks I will give it a shot and see how it goes. The biggest thing holding me back is older hardware like the Nvidia Shield for example not supporting AV1.

Ahh, yeah that could be an issue. It takes my laptop like 11 hours to encode one of the Lord of the Rings Blu-ray. I also change the audio to eAC3 while I'm in there for better client support.
