Hi fellow sailors,

i have lots of downloaded... ISOs... that i need to converto to save space. I would like to make them all of the same size, let's say 720p, and same format, let's say h265.

I am on linux and the... ISOs... are sorted into a neatly named hierarchy of sub-folderds, which i want to preserve too. What is the best tool (CLI) for the scope? I can use ffmpeg with a bash script, but is there anything better suited?

Alternatively you could look into av1-svt and av1an (!av1@lemmy.ml). But there are far more tools for x265

I need to encode in something future-proof that can be streamed to a fire stick pro max (whatever its called) without further transcoding possibly.

Any suggestion in codecs formats and containing formats?

Not sure why the link doesn't work: https://lemmy.ml/c/av1@lemmy.ml (there is also a second community and a av1 discord server.

Fire stick pro max should support av1 but I have no experience with that.

Av1 is the best compression format but it still requires more work to use it well. The tools for x265 are more mature.

What's this? The link you posted seems broken...
