Re-encoding for higher compression for archive
Hello,
I have a large amount of Raw (meaning unedited) footage from a project I did a while ago. It consists of daily shoot footage pre-editing. It was shot on a variety of DSLRs. Some footage was shot on an 80d at HD with a bit rate of 89386kbps. Audio @ 1532kbps in a .mov h.264 format. So a 10min video was around 6gb Other footage was shot on a C100 as MTS files in an Mp4 format. These were shot in HD @23989kbps and audio @ 1536kbps So a 10min video was about 1.72GB With the project now complete.....I have a HDD full of large video files that can be archived for storage. More than 500gb in total. Obviously these current formats hog a lot of HDD space. So, for archiving is there a preferential method for re-encoding these into a similar format for storage with a better quality/size ratio. I have tried a few tests with handbrake compressing to h.265 using quicksync hardware encoding to speed up the process. The results visually look pretty good and I have achieved a much higher compression ratio. But, it is not something I have done before. Is Handbrake a good method? So, I was wondering if there is a common method? any suggestions on setting? A good baseline kb/s to aim for? Many Thanks for any advice! Last edited by BadEdit; 8th January 2020 at 22:32. |
