Hey everyone,

I'm currently stuck between deciding whether to go for a 1080p REMUX or a 2160p REMUX and could really use some guidance here.

My laptop specs are as follows: I'm running Arch Linux with dwm (Xorg) and have configured MPV with hardware acceleration. Just to give you an idea:

- Screen Resolution: 3200x2000

- CPU: 11th Gen Intel i5-11300H (8) @ 4.400GHz

- GPU: Intel TigerLake-LP GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics]

Your post is lacking information. What do you WANT?

Do you really care about the quality and want 4k if possible? Are you trying to scale media amount? In that case, 4k remuxes will need an insane amout of disk space compared to 1080p. Do you need to support multiple people streaming, so transcoding and bandwidth is relevant?

Without knowing what you want to achieve it's impossible to make that choice.
