How is performance? Right now I use Handbrake to do video optimization. However, I'm not a video expert and all the options are pretty daunting to me. I don't know how to get the right mix of optimization without having the video encoding take forever. I would guess running the conversion in browser would just make everything slower. I wish there was something simpler for video, like ImageOptim. Just drag the video in and it compresses it using the best options based on compatibility needs.
- giobox 3y agoHandbrake uses ffmpeg under the hood for much of its activities: > https://handbrake.fr/docs/en/1.3.0/technical/source-formats.html https://handbrake.fr/docs/en/1.3.0/technical/source-formats.... "One of HandBrake’s strengths is its ability to open a wide variety of video formats. HandBrake uses FFmpeg under the hood and generally can open whatever FFmpeg will, in addition to disc-based formats like DVD and Blu-ray." The options Handbrake exposes are essentially the ffmpeg flags. The built in presets in Handbrake are generally pretty sensible IMO and I've rarely had to deviate.
- pradn 3y agoIf it's 2-3x of native code, that's plenty good enough. Everyone uses Handbrake in an async mode - just set up the conversion and let it run overnight. Of course, a website would be better for smaller conversion jobs (in case you have browser restarts or whatnot). Desktop apps can block computer restarts to a greater degree than websites.
