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.

You can play in handbrake with AV1 encoding to see how it goes. I think I set the compression to 36 or something.
Yeah, from the re-encodes I've done, I only noticed artifacts in clouds and the New Line Cinema intro to lord of the Rings
Playback has pretty wide support by now.
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.
Yeah, if the streaming providers ever switch over to AV1 that would be an interesting comparison.
Yeah, I think you need to do it after any update. I do this on my OG Pixel XL
Android uses a Just-in-Time (JIT) compile of applications. You can compile everything Ahead-of-Time (AOT) via adb. It would in theory improve performance when starting applications.
I think the play store update always breaks something which is why it's always months behind for pixels. I'm also on November Pixel 7.
How does it work? Have you also tried the AOT for all your apps to help with performance.
Years ago there were some multi-account credit cards floating around. Maybe that could be open sourced... Not sure...
Ahh, yeah that could be an issue. It takes my laptop like 11 hours to encode one of the Lord of the Rings Blu-ray. I also change the audio to eAC3 while I'm in there for better client support.
