As 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... It can encode 1000+ frames per second for those 480p movies.

trying to update my knowledge of video codecs for #resolume so I can chop up video clips with audio more precisely. Recommendations from the KB are from over a decade ago, then download links for #codec tools are two insecure HTTP hops deep into feeling like it's the era of K-Lite Mega Codec Pack all over again; looking at u #quicktime

Is there a way to have a bluetooth headset to work properly on Linux? For me it works as a headset only in mono, because of the codec that is used. If I want normal stereo sound I can't use the BT mic. I thought this issue was in the past, but no, still persists. This is annoying, I simply can't use my BT headphones on Linux. :/

One of the most useful tools is to be able to cut an mp4/mov video, but not have to re-encode it. Avidemux used to do that for years on Linux, but now there's LosslessCut with a more modern interface (appimage found on github, there's also a flatpak).

Honnêtement j'trouve ça dingue que maintenant que des gens commencent à encoder des #anime avec le #codec #AV1 on a 1h de film 1080p pour genre 300 Mo.

Soit... le même poids que pour une heure d'un bon Xvid de l'époque encodé à partir d'un DVD 480p, mais avec 6 fois plus de pixels.

I can now test Jpegli, Google's new JPEG encoding to improve image compression
