Best way to convert a regular .mp4 video into x265 on Windows?

Why are you such a spergout mate?
You asked for the best way to convert a video file.
You haven't asked for the "Most retard friendly way".
Take a few breaths and calm down.

h.264 AVC MPEG-4 part 10

only sperglords use the terminal, stop projecting

A thread died for your autistic rambling about your struggle with a simple command
lmao

stop projecting your obsession with the terminal unto other people

ok kid

If you don't want to deal with ffmpeg, you could try Handbrake

Calm the fuck down.

imagine mass quoting a bunch of posts on Jow Forums on a summer day and telling them to calm down when you're exploding with rage

Computers went wrong when they started making them for niggers.

The best way is ffmpeg. You should just use an unregistered version of Bandicam and record the video while it's playing in windowed mode though.

I feel sorry for you OP.

1. Install gentoo

Found the nigger.

Let's ignore OP's bait for a second. ffmpeg is the most convenient way to do it. Use a script to loop through your mp4 files that you want to reencode and do
ffmpeg -i "input.mp4" -c:v libx265 -preset veryslow -crf 18 -c:a copy "output.mp4"
for each file. crf 18 might be a bit too low, if you want to primarily save disk space. Go higher for smaller output files.

>"output.mp4"
that needs to be "output.x265" to get x265 file otherwise you get just another mp4 file

filename doesn't determine filetype, the "-c:v libx265" option tells ffmpeg to make it an x265 file.

Friendly reminder that if you're afraid of using a terminal for anything you're not tech savvy

there's nothing to click

Is there any real, palpable reason to convert your library to x265?

Nope! Conversion from lossy to lossy always loses data. You'd be a fucking idiot to do that.
But if you have the chance to rip to h265 from the get go and your devices support it's decompression, then there is no reason not to use h265 at this point, its flat out better the h264

The only two reasons I could think of is
-) to provide smaller torrents for people with bad internet
-) your internet is shit, you want to upload a file and that it takes longer to upload the bigger version than to reencode it
Otherwise what this user wrote

Thanks! I'm only ripping from some streaming sites, and so far everyone seems to be using x264 anyway

You can use the gui version, then:
Ffmpeg Ultra Converter King YOU edition. It's great, try it.

Reencoding already compressed media is basically useless, don't bother.

Then kys, friend.
