You might notice a long delay between this and my next release, I'm going to start encoding One Piece in the next few days and I wanna have all the resources I can dedicated to just that. I gave up on grav1_ex after fighting it for 8 hours yesterday. I got everything working except for adding jobs and workers. Nothing in logs showed why adding jobs was failing, and the workers claimed they were downloading a bad version of aomenc which was annoying. I found a tool called [Tdarr](https://github.com/HaveAGitGat/Tdarr) which encodes across multiple machines, but sends a whole file at a time instead of chunks of a file. Sorry that these files don't work on Plex, go bitch on their [Feature request thread](https://forums.plex.tv/t/add-support-for-av1-coding-standard/556253), or use Jellyfin with it's flaws with Anime metadata. Original source is this [Kametsu](https://nyaa.si/view/1017118) release. Don't forget to check out the [AV1 Weeb edition](https://discord.gg/rk6fCvxz2X) discord server for releases by the cool and awesome people that also do AV1 shenanigans. Oh yea, the encode settings I used were `-map 0 -c:v libsvtav1 -preset 5 -crf 32 -g 240 -pix_fmt yuv420p10le -svtav1-params tune=0:film-grain=8 -c:a opus -b:a 64k -strict -2` ``` General Unique ID : 238172744898374643999586393684738601806 (0xB32E66F23B69890019276E34767C734E) Complete name : /media/Anime/Akame ga Kill!/Season 1/Akame ga Kill! - S01E01 - Kill the Darkness.mkv Format : Matroska Format version : Version 4 File size : 162 MiB Duration : 23 min 41 s Overall bit rate : 957 kb/s Movie name : Akame ga Kill - 01 - Kill the Shadows Writing application : Lavf59.34.101 Writing library : Lavf59.34.101 ErrorDetectionType : Per level 1 Attachments : PrincesHand Regular.ttf / Sub-Alegreya-Bold.otf / Sub-Alegreya-BoldItalic.otf / 9SALERNO.TTF / HumanaSerifITCLight.ttf / KozukaMinchoProStrp-EL.otf / Cheyenne Hand.TTF / DFKai-SB.ttf / Dusseldorf.ttf / Merienda One.ttf / Vesta-Bold_3.otf Video ID : 5 Format : AV1 Format/Info : AOMedia Video 1 Format profile : Main@L4.0 Codec ID : V_AV1 Duration : 23 min 41 s Bit rate : 7 558 kb/s Width : 1 920 pixels Height : 1 080 pixels Display aspect ratio : 16:9 Frame rate mode : Constant Frame rate : 23.976 (24000/1001) FPS Color space : YUV Chroma subsampling : 4:2:0 Bit depth : 10 bits Bits/(Pixel*Frame) : 0.152 Stream size : 1.25 GiB Title : [Beatrice] Writing library : Lavc59.51.100 libsvtav1 Language : Japanese Default : Yes Forced : No Color range : Limited Color primaries : BT.709 Transfer characteristics : BT.709 Matrix coefficients : BT.709 Audio #1 ID : 1 Format : Opus Codec ID : A_OPUS Duration : 23 min 41 s Bit rate : 1 547 kb/s Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel layout : L R Sampling rate : 48.0 kHz Frame rate : 11.719 FPS (4096 SPF) Bit depth : 32 bits Compression mode : Lossy Stream size : 262 MiB Title : English 5.1 FLAC Writing library : Lavc59.51.100 opus Language : English Default : Yes Forced : No Audio #2 ID : 2 Format : Opus Codec ID : A_OPUS Duration : 23 min 41 s Bit rate : 1 476 kb/s Channel(s) : 2 channels Channel layout : L R Sampling rate : 48.0 kHz Frame rate : 11.719 FPS (4096 SPF) Bit depth : 32 bits Compression mode : Lossy Stream size : 250 MiB Title : Japanese 2.0 opus Writing library : Lavc59.51.100 opus Language : Japanese Default : No Forced : No Text #1 ID : 3 Format : ASS Codec ID : S_TEXT/ASS Codec ID/Info : Advanced Sub Station Alpha Duration : 23 min 39 s Bit rate : 263 b/s Frame rate : 0.168 FPS Count of elements : 238 Compression mode : Lossless Stream size : 40.8 KiB (0%) Title : Signs/Songs Language : English Default : Yes Forced : No Text #2 ID : 4 Format : ASS Codec ID : S_TEXT/ASS Codec ID/Info : Advanced Sub Station Alpha Duration : 23 min 39 s Bit rate : 363 b/s Frame rate : 0.468 FPS Count of elements : 664 Compression mode : Lossless Stream size : 62.7 KiB (0%) Title : Full Subtitles [Vivid/Asenshi/Doki] Language : English Default : No Forced : No Menu 00:00:00.000 : :Avant 00:02:19.013 : :OP 00:03:49.020 : :Part A 00:13:17.963 : :Part B 00:21:54.938 : :ED 00:23:24.945 : :Next ```
