Correction: when I say "kilobytes per second" I should be saying "kilobits per second". Thanks to tresf for pointing this out! Another correction: at 6:56 I accidentally put the red X over veryslow because placebo isn't on that chart. Veryslow is often the best choice if you're encoding a large video overnight or something, so ignore that red X and listen to the narration instead. Correction 3: At 4:53, I said that increasing CRF will increase file size and decreasing will decrease file size. That's the opposite of what will actually happen. Increasing CRF will *decrease* file size and vice versa.
This is a very good video. Great explanations for us dummies who are looking at this as our first introduction to codecs, and simple visuals that really help get the point across without being too distracting.
I wanted to verify how to encode with x264 as I need to encode again but not so keen on buying new hardware just for that. Your video cleared my mind. Very informative and clear with the images. Maybe you could have include the file size in the examples. Top !
There is probably a small error regarding the CRF file sizes at 4:58: DEcreasing CRF by 6 (e.g. 6 to 0) makes files double the size. INcreasing CRF by 6 (e.g. 0 to 6) halves the file size. It's a little confusing because "lower is better".
Only 9k views lmao. This is one of those videos who explains in few minutes something that lecturers tries to explain us in university in over 5 hours.
@@Felipemelazzi this is actually genius If you had told me 2 years ago that a 1080Ti was too weak to play Minecraft I'd have laughed I'm still laughing but for different reasons xD
This guy is talking nonsense At fast the image is better at a smaller file size than with very fast but you have to turn down the overall bit rate because the encoder at faster to medium is using more Bitrate for demanding scenes than the faster ones If you encoder 4k you should use medium with a AMD 2600x and on 1080p you should use slow with this cpu And do not use hardware encoders they are completely useless for non streaming

Best video I've watched in a while! Fun, fast paced, and super informative. Nice work Jousboxx!
finally an informative video, it surprised me this doesn't have more views
This was the best concise video I've seen for this, thank you so much for your tutorial! I needed it for college portfolios lol
Very educational. One mistake I could spot in my limited understanding though was that it's kilobits per second and not kilobytes
Yes sorry about that, looks like I forgot to pin the correction, just did that.
@@jousboxx9532 Cool man, my apologies for not seeing that. I am trying to learn how to encode like YIFY movie rips. Lol, hope they don't catch me

Good catch, I'll add an annota-
oh wait
Thank you so very much for this tutorial! I'm new to using OBS studio and this video is very helpful! Again, thank you!
Best video ever bro ! This is a life safer... You just got yourself a subscriber. Damn !
Fun to learn and very informative ......Thanks for sharing
Thanks a lot for the explanation!
This video was amazing. Thank you so much.
Holy shit this was so useful damn man good job
Damn... Really informative!
You work cool !!

yis im famous

6:04 "Has GTX 1080Ti, plays Minecraft"
Too bad. It's too weak to have Ray Tracing in Minecraft.
I'd meme myseft too if I were in your place
My comment is a joke for those who didn't get it

Fascinating. It's so time consuming and annoying to encode. I don't like it. It's too much work 😭 why can't it be easy
because the people who are smart enough to write encoding software think that software we consider complicated is in fact, quite simple. 😔
@@jousboxx9532 now that just makes me feel inferior😂😂💀
H265 is better.
Yes, but it's not really mainstream yet and I don't have very much experience with it. I believe all the stuff in this video will work will h265 tho.
