I'm ashamed to admit that it took me a while to realize this was AI generated.

I think this is a great idea, but just for different reasons.

Say you're a linux user and make a simple txt file to note down something quick. Do you give the file a .txt extension, or leave it with no extension?

In theory you can encode the video and audio separately, maybe with ffmpeg, and multiplex them with mkvmerge. This way you can tweak audio or video independently without redoing all the encode, but meme videos should be short enough that it doesn't matter).

I used to enjoy playing around with these things. Might start playing around again. Maybe make a script for myself. I post plenty of YouTube clips, and want them to be decent quality, but I usually don't go over a certain size, so I end up downloading a lower res version. But I suspect I could get better results if I download a 1080p and do the resizing myself.

I find it hilarious that Vine was killed off, only for TikTok to come and dominate the exact same space Vine occupied, and now everyone is struggling to come up with something similar.

@Lumeinshin
Clear enough. I'd say 240p is much to low of resolution, even for what it is. 360p-480p should be a minimum. Very slow is basically the only profile that is even worth using on x264 these days. And placebo, as the name suggests, is just burning CPU cycles for nothing. For animated clips I highly encourage you manually bump up the reference frames (from what I remember 9 should provide good compatibility even for 720p video). And crf 25 is... acceptable. I wouldn't watch a DVD reencoded at that quality, but for what you're using it for it's ok as long as the resolution is decent too.

Very smart use of mono audio though. You could lower the bitrate to 48kbps per channel for most things (so 48kbps if mono, 96kbps if stereo).

That's the silliest thing I've ever seen you say (write). If you think teamwork doesn't suffer from the working from home paradigm, then I can only conclude that you haven't worked in office or teamwork environments.
