I have a collection of about ~110 4K Blu-Ray movies that I’ve ripped and I want to take the time to compress and store them for use on a future Jellyfin server.
I know some very basics about ffmpeg
and general codec information, but I have a very specific set of goals in mind I’m hoping someone could point me in the right direction with:
In a perfect world, I would love to be able to convert the proprietary HDR into an open standard, and the Dolby Atmos audio into an open standard, but a good compromise is this.
Assuming that I have the hardware necessary to do the initial encoding, and my server will be powerful enough for transcoding in that format, any tips or pointers?
1. Posts must be related to the discussion of digital piracy

3. Don’t request or link to specific pirated titles, including DMs

AV1 is definitely what I’d like to do. I’m not aiming for maximum compatibility; small file size and high quality encodes are my goal. I can transcode if needed.
Keep in mind at least your server should be able to decode whatever you choose in hardware, so AV1 might still not be a good idea depending on your current hardware and upgrade plans.
