Question H265 or AV1 to compress better quality (CPU only)

[danny009]

I have few content that needs to be compressed in better quality and of course with some waiting time, which codec I should be using for better compression in image quality output that will not be rendered or compressed again. I use handbrake to do this,
I'd like to use my CPU only to do these since GPU acceleration in handbrake does not work well in quality and results ALWAYS magically different.


Thank you

AV1 has better compression and quality than h265
h266 is better than AV1 btw

Try it both ways, and see which works best for you.

Thanks both of you, I decided to use AV1 on Handbrake since program does not support H266 yet, plus I do not have a i9 9999K to use that kind of codec, cheers
