2026-05-04 Northern cardinal with seed on her face

I have not had a chance to go through and edit videos from the bird feeder recently. I have a whole bunch from April.

This one was fairly amusing.

2026-05-04 Male northern cardinal with raised crest

This northern cardinal is aware of its surroundings as it spins around with a seed in its beak.

I am trying to get the hang of encoding with svtav1 library. Unfortunately I can’t use ffmpeg 4 on my desktop so I transfer the files to my laptop, with ffmpeg 6, and then can use a command like this:

ffmpeg -i [input] -c:v libsvtav1 -c:a copy -preset 6 -svtav1-params "keyint=10s:tune=0:enable-overlays=1:scd=1:scm=0" [output]
