now that the dust has settled, what is the best HEVC profile for the optimal quality retention and file size at most reasonable time required?

Main (8bit) if you put emphasis on the encoding time, Main 10 overall. You only encode once, it's to put in extra CPU time effort.

no need to worry. x265 is pajeet software not worth using.

No point in h265 unless you're encoding sub-1mbps or 4k video. For everything else stick to h264 and encode using x264.

Nvidia support hardware decoding up to 12 bit so I guess 16 bit is the reasonable option.

You should assume that op is encoding at least a prores FHD source.

Slow @ 20-24 CRF. Nothing else is worth the time investment.

Back in the day we had video on magnetic tape, the best was the sony 440 megabits for 1080 RGB. They don't make format like that anymore.

Well they certainly don't as tape, but you can get uncompressed data and even un-demosaiced sensor data more easily. The tape you're speaking of was meant for high end cinema market, the costs have went considerably down since then.

HEVC is dead.
Outperformed by the royalty-free AV1.

HEVC seems to have the same issue as WMV codec where shit all looks blurred. Is there some option to turn this off?

You do understand both are aimed at different markets due to companies involved?

There's no market for HEVC. Absolutely none. It's impossible to license it. There isn't a single pool to license from.

You're right. It's a mess no company would ever want to touch.

>1FPS encoding
Yeah, no.

>1FPS
You wish

Apple uses HEVC, 4k TV broadcasters as well. Netflix does as well.

AV1 is a meme and like literally thousands of times slower than avc in encoding.

how long until pirate groups start using av1 and what kind of hardware do i need for it?

>AV1 is a meme and like literally thousands of times slower than avc in encoding.
Mozilla recently demoed realtime AV1 encoding with a single multi-core CPU.
Poor pre-release performance of encoder was never of any relevance.

They won't use it if it doesn't get adopted in video hardware such as TVs, consoles, Bluray devices. And it won't get adopted there because the companies producing the hardware have their hands in HEVC. Pirates will continue copying what the movie market uses.

Pirate groups will use it when it's easy enough.
The open nature of AV1 will eventually lead to a rich software ecosystem.
Right now, it's just not there yet. But lots of work is going towards it.
Browser decoding is there on mozilla and chrome, at least dev builds. We know about an encoder effort by mozilla, too.

>And it won't get adopted there because the companies producing the hardware have their hands in HEVC.
Now, that's just nonsense. Refer to The big ones such as YouTube will adopt AV1, and meantime continue to use H264/VP9.

>HEVC
>Not waiting for AV1

Fucking nonfree shills out. The level of damage h264 has done to computing is insane.

X265 is good for animes, 350 mb per episode and it’s full quality.

Fuck off Daiz

They've barely finishedthe bitstream, it's not ready for prime time yet.

all of them are garbage that was designed to sell more hardware because old ones cant do hardware rendering for those formats

ffmpeg can do hardware HEVC encoding

Pirate groups will use what just werks and has loots of support. Like HEVC.

AV1, like VP9, Opus, Ogg etc are meme codecs which nobody will use.

...

decoding is what i care about

>which nobody will use
What is YouTube?

HEVC for under 2000 kbps rate.

HEVC for >2000 kbps rate.
