#loops @loops@pixelfed.social

I'm working on the @loops Camera

The challenge is to optimize the video as much as possible (on device) before upload to reduce load on the backend.

A 15s video (with audio) is just under 800kb at 480p30 using h265, not bad 😎

@loops I know 480p is low by todays standard, but it’s surprising okay on mobile screens and will reduce the storage usage which is going to be increasingly important for Loop instance admins.

Higher resolutions are on the roadmap!

This generation of codecs (H265 and VP9) is optimized for high resolutions (e.g. they use larger macroblocks for areas of uniform-ish color), so do try higher resolutions, maybe even at the same bitrate as this.

@dansup @loops Why not encode with AV1?

@dansup @loops What aspect ratios will you have? This one seems like 3:4 vertical?

Will we be able to import loop style videos from pixelfed we may have?
