1080p or 2160p REMUX? (lemmy.ml)

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]

Are you downloading or creating the remux? ^^

If you are downloading:

If you are only playing the movie on the laptop on a 15" screen, resolution above 1080p doesnt matter all that much for movies. If you are watching it on a large 4k tv - something like over 50" you have to consider the additional storage space, thats needed with the higher quality variant.

I am personally not so much considered with high resolution unless I watch a movie again and again and again. If you probably only watch it once, try out the 1080p version and find out if the quality is high enough for ya or if it is disturbing you.
