I’ve amassed a sizeable hoard, nearly all encoded h264 or h265.

The space savings made by AV1 are attractive, but I don’t want to move on it until after I’ve acquired hardware capable of AV1 GPU accelerated decode.

Even then, the cost of reacquiring some works has to be weighed. Storage space gets freed; but how often do I actually revisit some cherished items?

Anybody else having to make similar evaluations?

I have a jellyfin+arr+qbit setup. i just tell it to prefer av1. It usually doesn’t get any, but once av1 becomes more common I will probably switch, but I will have to re-download everything as av1 so I can continue seeding.
