    I encode at roughly half the material’s playtime with a 1080p source. Using a Ryzen 3600 with Handbrake/SVT-AV1 @ RF 25, Preset 9.

    Edit: I achieve about 80% compression like this

      Wow, I don’t even get that level of speed with x264 1080p transcodes, although I guess it makes sense preset 9 on AV1 (I’ve only done “very slow” encodes with x264/x265).

      80% compression is very low though. 40% - 60% is my target for x264/x265 for moderately complex content (x265 can achieve better “close to transparent” compression for newer content, made after 2005 or so).
