  • Visually lossless means I couldn't tell an image difference even when pixel peeping with imgsli. Good enough means I couldn't tell a difference in video, but could occasionally see a compression artifact in imgsli.

    The VMAF results are purely objective measurements. You can read more about it here; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VideoMultimethodAssessmentFusion

  • I consider the 'good enough' level to be, if I didn't pixel peep, I couldn't tell the difference. The visually lossless levels were the first crf levels where I couldn't tell a quality difference even when pixel peeping with imgsli. I also included VAMF results, which say that the quality loss levels are all the same at a pixel level.

    I know that av1, x264, and x265 all have different ways of compressing video. Obviously, the whole point of this was to get a better idea of what that actually looked like. Everything on the visually lossless section is completely indistinguishable to my eyes, and everything on the good enough section has very minor bits of compression only noticed when i'm looking for it in a still image. This does not require the same codec to compare and contrast with.

    Frankly, for anything other than real-time encoding, I don't actually consider encoding time to be a huge deal. None of my encodes were slower than 3fps on my 5800x3d, which is plenty for running on my media server as overnight job. For real-time encoding, I would just grab a Intel Arc card, and redo the whole thing since the bitrates will be different anyways.

  • From my blogpost, i'm using the following command to encode the video;

     
        
ffmpeg -i source.2160p.mkv
-map 0:v:0
-map -0:a -map -0:s -map_metadata -1
-c:v libsvtav1
-preset 3
-vf scale=w=1920:-2
-crf 23
dest.1080p.av1.mkv

  • Sure, but that is a choice that couldn't be made without first checking how much space is saved by switching codecs. This helps with making that decision, but i'm well aware it is only part of the information needed.

  • I did try to format the table here better. I used code blocks the first time, and it ended up being even uglier. After about four edit attempts i kinda just gave up. Tables don't seem to exist as far as I can tell either.

    Your experience with x264 just about matches up with mine. As long as I don't pixel peep, crf 24 does a pretty great job of conveying the information. It also does a pretty great job of working with just about everything compatibility-wise. I don't expect it to go away any time soon specifically because of that.

    AV1 is super neat in that we can buy hardware accelerated encoding for it for really cheap using the Intel Arc video cards, and can be decoded by their latest CPU generation. It makes for a great choice for something like security camera footage where playback compatibility is good enough (you can play it in a modern pc), hardware encoding works with a 200$ card, and you save a lot of money using the video card instead of buying extra storage space.

  • No, I know why you did it. I saw your other comments. I'm not asking why, im explaining that your comment was dimissive, rude, and very much using a person who was venting about their stress in life.

    Not for them, obviously.

    You do understand that makes it worse, right?

  • And yet you replied directly to them. The fact that you used their comment as a platform for your rant makes it worse, not better.

  • RARBG like 4K rips, any group making similar sized movies?

  • Don’t bother transcoding 4k

    i have a cheap 1650 that can do four 4k transcodes on the fly with no issue. It was a 100$ upgrade. Frankly, this is a bad take. Obviously every situation is different, but unless you have a family of twenty that you're sharing your server with, 4k encoding is incredibly easy to do these days.

  • Only acoholics actually need to try to convince others that they aren't alcoholics. Nobody goes up to a person on the street to start aggressively asking if they have a drinking problem.

    Any serious questions about how alcohol is affecting your life will quickly demonstrate whether it is is or isn't a problem, without you ever saying that you don't have a drinking problem.

  • I checked my discord, and i think this is a case of discords shitty ui, not changing privacy settings. Yes, my checkbox in that exact location was allowing other people to find based on phone number contamination. However, when i visited the privacy page that i did know existed, that permission was still turned off for me.
