  • lossless-cut

    The swiss army knife of lossless video/audio editing

    You could use LosslessCut to try to make a test clip from your DVD(s) so it doesn't take a lifetime in the encoding.

  • NotEnoughAV1Encodes-Qt

    Linux GUI for AV1 Encoders

    I like using NotEnoughAV1Encodes. There's also Av1an, and ab-av1.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Av1an

    Cross-platform command-line AV1 / VP9 / HEVC / H264 encoding framework with per scene quality encoding

    I like using NotEnoughAV1Encodes. There's also Av1an, and ab-av1.

  • ab-av1

    AV1 re-encoding using ffmpeg, svt-av1 & vmaf.

    I like using NotEnoughAV1Encodes. There's also Av1an, and ab-av1.

  • ffmpeg-quality-metrics

    Calculate quality metrics with FFmpeg (SSIM, PSNR, VMAF, VIF)

    ffmpeg-quality-metrics is nice for comparing quality between copies. Better than squinting at pixels IMO.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
