AV1? that's a codec, right? I see in the preferences section for Piped. Is better than AVC (h.2640)?

Yes, AV1 is the next big deal. You can compress the hell out of the video and it still looks near original. I've re-encode some of my locally ripped movies for fun to see how it looks and it's really impressive.

Can you tell me more about reencoding to save space?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

There is a trade off between just getting more storage and reencoding. I enjoy seeing the results of the re-encodes, but it's more cost effective to just get a larger hard drive.
