Social 📸 Photography

Tommi 🤯 @ WHY 📞9848So I have hundreds of videos of ~1 minute recorded from my phone ~10 years ago, and they generally don’t have that great compression, nor they are stored in a modern and advanced video format.For archiving purposes, I want to take advantage of my workstation’s mighty GPU to process them so that the quality is approximately the same, but the file size would be strongly reduced.Nevertheless, compressing videos is terribly hard, and way more complex than compressing pictures, so I wouldn’t really know how to do this, what format to use, what codec, what bitrate, what parameters to keep an eye on, etc.I don’t care if the compression takes a lot of time, I just want smaller but good looking videos.Any tips? (Links to guides and tutorials are ok too)Also, unfortunately I am forced to use Windows for this (don’t ask me why 🫠), but I know nothing about Windows because I hate it. Practical software suggestions are very much welcome, too!<a href="https://pan.rent/tags/ffmpeg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ffmpeg</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/help" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#help</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/askFedi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#askFedi</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/codec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#codec</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/AVI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AVI</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/H265" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#H265</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/H264" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#H264</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/movie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#movie</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/video" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#video</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/videoCompression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#videoCompression</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/compression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#compression</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/encoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#encoding</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/HandBrake" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HandBrake</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/heif" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#heif</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/heic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#heic</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/avif" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#avif</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/mp4" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mp4</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/mkv" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mkv</a> <a href="https://pan.rent/tags/Wondows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Wondows</a>

Corgi DadAs a video codec engineer I don't think I'll allow movies I ripped from decades old DVDs to be encoded with MPEG-2. It's not like I am trying to save storage on the NAS. It's a principle thing.My AMD 7900xtx supports AV1 hardware encoding...
