It is a mistake to see oneself as a mercenary in this way. We should all be the happier if objectionable jobs were harder to staff.

4 monthsHey, HISTV is showing a ton of promise right out the gates. Targeting 5mbps, I’m cutting anime episodes down from 2gb to 1gb with barely any noticeable change in quality. This is some gourmet shit, brethren.

4 monthsThanks, I’ll remind myself to report back when I dive in! Ordered the backup drive today, so it’s already in motion. Like you I’m pretty laid back about my video editing work. Simple is good. I do edit a clip show for my kid every week these last two years so I’m at least slightly aware of these ideas, if only as a dilettante.

4 monthsThis looks promising! My main use case is Jellyfin through Android TV, and it looks like AV1 has support for that. I currently have about 6 Tb of kids cartoons that are eating up most of my media server, would be great to shrink those slightly.
I think before I try this, I’ll want to spring for an offline backup of the library, then begin transcoding… I need one anyway, at least now I’m excited enough to actually do it!

4 monthsI’m starting to run low on space with my media server, this could be a good way to forestall having to buy hard drives that don’t suck!

5 monthsI guess I had a kneejerk, a lot of times when someone starts up like this it always feels like a veiled “people don’t like my favourite one” type of thing. He’s pretty even handed and nuanced beyond that, credit where credit is due.

5 monthsAs long as people are moving away from Windows and Mac, who cares? You’re never gonna convince most people that their OS should be interesting and worth talking about. Take the W.

They should just vibe code the feature. They’ll have it done in an afternoon, right?
