    Once Intel ARC cards are supported natively in UnRaid, I’ll be transcoding everything to AV1.

    Hardware encoding for AV1 is really all that has been missing for it to be widely used for homelab setups.

        Super oversimplified, but take an imaginary 1GB video file and it will compress roughly to the size below with minimal visual degradation.

        H.264 -> H.265 -> AV1

        1GB -> 600MB -> 350MB
