/gen/ - General Discussion

I know zilch about video so I had to play around too to find my sweet spot. I now have the resolution at 1080, use the H.264 encoder, and have the framerate set to 30. Huge c4s files (>1gb) wind up at 1/2-1/3 the size and there is a slight drop in quality but it still works for me on phone or laptop.

>>88982 It's bad from a quality and file size perspective to have a mismatched frame rate from the source video. So check that and match it - most videos won't be 60fps anyway. You can press control-i in VLC to check the frame rate of a video. Also you'll usually want constant frame rate. Instead of constant quality try an average bit rate of 5000kbps.

>>88982 dude, just use https://impractical.itch.io/msuite worth every penny. I converted my entire stash from 100 gbs to around 25 gbs. some videos decrease 90%. video quality is good enough for the amount of size saved. it literally saved my stash as i was running out of space.
