How do you guys handle converting videos to this thing?
I'm using vp9 codec on ffmpeg and the encoding is painfully slow. Is there any way to speed this up anons?
>>105616262 (OP)Do you need vp9? vp8 is a magnitude faster, the only problem here on 4chan is that you can upload vp8 w/ audio.

Do you need vp9? vp8 is a magnitude faster. The only problem here on 4chan is that you can't* upload vp8 w/ audio.
>>105616375I assumed it was the standard since most webms I see here are vp9.
Will try vp8 later, but no audio is kinda of a dealbreaker...
>>105616375VP8 is low quality as shit for 4chan filesize limits
Unless you have an Intel iGPU with QuickSync, you don't have hardware encoding for vp9. The software encoder was never made any good because Google made their own ASICs for use with YouTube. Just tough it out. Increasing the multithreading on vp9 just makes the tiling extremely visible.

I just switched to AVC since I only make short clips.
>>105616262 (OP)I just use WEBM for Bakas and call it a day
>>105616382>I assumed it was the standard it is, vp8 is way worse than even h264, now that mp4 support exists there's absolutely 0 reason to use it.
>>105616402>Unless you have an Intel iGPU with QuickSync, you don't have hardware encoding for vp9well even if you did have an iGPU with quicksync, with 4chan's filesize limits encoding it in hardware would be a terrible idea.
>>105616375>you can't* upload vp8 w/ audio.hhhh yes you can? I have a bunch of vp8+vorbis webms i downloaded off /gif/ a while ago
>>105616262 (OP)use nvidia h264, its way faster
>>105616262 (OP)what kind of garbage cpu do you have? ffmpeg is plenty fast on any reasonably modern pc.

there are many options to speed up the encode, you just have to use them.
>>105616262 (OP)I use my script I wrote and have updated since this shit was first supported here. It aims to come in just under the file size limit with the best quality video it can achieve in a reasonable time. It's slow but works fine. The only thing I like about mp4 support is it encodes way faster.
