🖼️ A wild NVIDIA RTX 2000 w/ 16GB and native AV1 transcoding support has arrived‼️

✍️ We are pleased to announce that we secured this excellent condition used GPU for the PeerTube instance. After @oemb1905 traveled up to Brown Rice Data Center and installed it and passed it through to the virtualized PT, Lord @sen took care of customizing the JSON for the ffmpeg logic and did some tinkering under the hood so that PT would be efficient in its choices. Efficient hardware AV1 transcoding is now live.

💡 We still have slots open for registration and the quoted post below shows our starting quotas and limits. More is available upon request or for justified use-cases. As a reminder, the GNUTube requires members to be posting either floss content and/or for supporting floss organizations. Linux gamers and benchmarkers are also welcome.

New Halide blog post on post-processing for chroma as it is relevant to compression efficiency: https://halide.cx/blog/chroma-handling

Seems like you can get a roughly 2% efficiency improvement with 4:2:0 decoder output just with smarter post-processing for chroma. Pretty neat!

Now all of our photos and videos are processed, I made Immich transcode them again with AV1 software encoder and now they all look great!

Also worth noting that this only happens with videos from pixel 10 pro fold….. HDR videos from iPhone and other devices are fine.

Was anyone aware that OBS now offers "Enhanced Broadcasting" aka Multritrack Video? This offloads video transcoding to the person that is streaming their content and off of the servers themselves.

This is the single biggest cost of hosting a livestreaming server. If users are willing to use what's in their system we can make the bar to entry incredibly low.

Ah the Immich transcoding has a bug where the tone mapping is broken - transcoded HEVC video thumbnails are very dark with NVENC. Not sure if it happens with other encoders. I’d love to use av1 but my old hardware doesn’t support that…

Shrinkray – công cụ chuyển đổi video đơn giản, chạy trên web. Chỉ cần duyệt thư mục, chọn file, chọn preset (HEVC, AV1, 1080p/720p) và bắt đầu. Hỗ trợ tăng tốc phần cứng (NVENC, Quick Sync, VAAPI), phát hiện HDR + tonemap, chọn batch, lên lịch giờ chạy, quản lý queue (pause/resume, sắp xếp, lọc) và thông báo Pushover khi hoàn tất. Thay thế phức tạp như Tdarr/Unmanic cho người muốn trải nghiệm nhanh gọn. #video #transcoding #Selfhosted #OpenSource #CôngCụ #Go #Linux

Did someone had issues with #MXF video files from #DavinciResolve 20? There's a global alarm in film libraries / #videoarchives on dead frames and color information loss. If so, have you used #qctools to detect it?

thnx! : :clippy:

Looking for a dedicated GPU for #transcoding purposes turned out to be the worst rabbit hole.🙈

So, I'm using a AMD Ryzen 4600G in my homelab featuring #ProxmoxVE. The hardware transcoding capabilities of AMD hardware is very much behind Nvidia and #Intel, even though it isn't half as bad as expected. Anyway, the best transcoding hardware (best quality at same size/profile) are Intel devices featuring #QuickSync. Setting up another dedicated transcoding device (featuing a low power Intel APU such as the #N100) device doesn't seem to make much sense for me. There are several Intel Arc GPUs on the market and they all have pretty much the same transcoding capabilities, so I'd like to get the Intel GPU featuring the lowest power draw, especially when idling. (1/?)

awesome!
In the long run it might also make the online transcoding tools with the "Start now" [to download malware]-button obsolete.

Funnily I talked about this [soon solved] problem with my funder @clemensg by phone today.

Just a thought, from a knuckle-dragging biology scientist. TL;DR: I believe there is scope to make the hosting of a peertube instance even more lightweight in the future.

I read some time ago of people using #webAssembly to transcode video in a user's web-browser. https://blog.scottlogic.com/2020/11/23/ffmpeg-webassembly.html

Since then, I believe #WebGPU has done/is doing some clever things to improve the browser's access to the device's GPU.

I have not seen any #peertube capability that offloads video transcoding to the user in this way.

I imagine, though, that this would align well with peertube's agenda of lowering the bar to entry into web-video hosting, so I cannot help but think that this will come in time.

My own interest is seeing a #Piefed (activitypub) instance whose web-pages could #autotranslate posts into the user's own language using the user's own processing power... One day, maybe!

Thank you again for all your hard work; it is an inspiration.

The following appears to have worked.

ffmpeg -i input.webm -c:a aac -vbr 5 -cutoff 1800 -vcodec copy output.mkv

I don't know why. Which hopefully gives you cause to pause and consider.

Just completed a #Transcode of around 30 minutes of .webm vid+aud into h.265 (aka #HEVC).

Took 8 hours.

And the computer's fan did a lot of whirring.

Getting a format that the TV wil play without #Transcoding seems necessary.

Updated numbers for Eve-AV1 & Eve-VP9 are public! The last time they were updated was around 2019, so this should give a more relevant look at how they perform. It takes a lot to improve a mature video encoder, and I'm very impressed with the Eve lineup. I may be biased, though.

@gutenberg_org @internetarchive is anyone doing anything about the idea of including the codec with the scan for future future generations? I love digital archiving but at the same time there are already videos in my own archive that I can no longer easily decode.

Someone casually dropped the Logic Bomb 💣 named tdarr

You can do DISTRIBUTED transcoding remuxing processing and automation of your Media Library

Now this is superbly interesting. All Sound Engineers have Massive, Massive media Libraries and I'm just talking about the audio

Then we have a Massive administrative system which accompanies the audio, because we need to know, what is where and Why, especially full analog audio that is still on Quarter inch Tape Reels, stacked in our large physical audio Archive.

We also have an Administration upon that, because we have carefully written down, which effect we used on which track, why and which parameters because everything is analog and nothing was possibly to be stored in a digital manner; that equipment didn't exist at all.

I have to check how long ago tdarr was developed, but this is a tool set that I needed 35 years ago!
