I'm going to France today
Goddammit my ass and neck hurt from the ride and there's still six hours before us tomorrow.
The fact that EU doesn't have borders is completely fucking useless anyway because you have to stand fucking forever for the fucking toll boths 
I understand why countries like Croatia, Italy etc have them though. They absolutely milk the tourists. Taking a highway from east to west in Italy costs only a bit less than a year highway pass in Czechia.
Jesus Christ that looks awful. What the fuck is Mastodon doing. A simple ffmpeg -i input.mp4 output.mp4 doesn't do this.

Looks like it didn't get enough bitrate. Looking at the file metadata, it has a crf of 18 (which normally would be good enough for any resolution), but also a cap on bitrate to 1300kbps (vbv_maxrate=1300), which would destroy the video quality, considering you have a 4k video to encode.
@matrix
My suggestion would be to add a resize, limit the resolution. Otherwise, you'd need to increase the bitrate by too much to get good results, and that would have consequences on encoding time and bandwidth usage.
@alyx Yeah, adding a resize for video that's over some size is going to be difficult, but I agree that's the best option.
@alyx I guess I need to tweak this
