somebody finally did it. open source native video compression on Android which uses the hardware and isn't just another ffmpeg wrapper. MIT licensed.

"Compressor." now available on @IzzyOnDroid

dude needs beta testers to get it on Google Play ... see the latest release notes on Github if you want to help.

We replaced H.264 streaming with JPEG screenshots (and it worked better)

🔑 Bài học chính:
* SEO ngách không phải lúc nào cũng hiệu quả.
* Kiên nhẫn và từ khóa dài giúp thắng ở thị trường Nhật Bản (và có thể cả Hàn Quốc).
* Thị trường Mỹ cạnh tranh khốc liệt hơn.
* Cần đa dạng hóa nguồn thu (affiliate marketing).

So I have hundreds of videos of ~1 minute recorded from my phone ~10 years ago, and they generally don’t have that great compression, nor they are stored in a modern and advanced video format.

For archiving purposes, I want to take advantage of my workstation’s mighty GPU to process them so that the quality is approximately the same, but the file size would be strongly reduced.

Nevertheless, compressing videos is terribly hard, and way more complex than compressing pictures, so I wouldn’t really know how to do this, what format to use, what codec, what bitrate, what parameters to keep an eye on, etc.

I don’t care if the compression takes a lot of time, I just want smaller but good looking videos.

Any tips? (Links to guides and tutorials are ok too)

Also, unfortunately I am forced to use Windows for this (don’t ask me why 🫠), but I know nothing about Windows because I hate it. Practical software suggestions are very much welcome, too!

I'm making a video codec that uses Color Cell Compression, the predecessor of S3TC. A clip can have 16 colors, and each 4x4-pixel block usea two of them. I aim to play FMV on Mega Drive and Game Boy Advance.

It codes 256x144 pixel 12 fps animation at 25 to 42 kB/s depending on motion. Live action is 62.5 kB/s. Fits Sega CD bitrate, not so much Genesis or GBA cartridge yet. I still see room for byte savings.
