Sunday Evening Open Thread

I hope everyone is having a good weekend. I woke up to the sound of a random rooster, had a good brunch type sandwich, trimmed the claws, updated dedicated servers then fixed them afterwards, edited some video footage and played a couple games. I don’t have anything slated to release this week. I have some projects in the pipeline, and depending on how things are scheduled I’m not sure when I’ll be able to roll the next one out. I have more Revengeance, Phantom Pain, Quake Champions and more that either need to be edited, require more video or require final polishing.

I’m looking forward to experimenting with some newer codec options they added to Shotcut recently, apparently you can now use your GPU encoder (assuming you have a newer graphics card with the latest drivers) for both AMD and NVidia GPU’s. When I get to a certain point I’ll have to see how well these stack up to libx264 and libx265. I originally planned to start encoding in H.265 for the additional compression, but I need to know how all of these codecs stack up against each other for my own education and amusement. :v:
