Hannah<p>I am currently making some 8bit inspired music, so I am using a lot of bit crushing. Encoding the audio as AAC file noticeably alters the sound, and now I am that kind of person who has a strong opinion about the right type of audio degradation. 😅</p><p><a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Musodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Musodon</span></a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/MusicProduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MusicProduction</span></a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/8Bit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>8Bit</span></a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AAC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AAC</span></a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/Codec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Codec</span></a></p>

cslinuxboy<p>I purchased this gpu for video encoding (VP9/AV1) <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CSFJN835?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&amp;th=1" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">amazon.com/dp/B0CSFJN835?ref=p</span><span class="invisible">px_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&amp;th=1</span></a> . It's a little encoding powerhouse, and for the low $99 price tag IMO it's a really good value. I'm able to encode a 2hr BluRay movie using VP9/AV1 in about 10 minutes. The only negative about the card is the onboard fan. It's pretty noisy.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Intel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Intel</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/IntelGPU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IntelGPU</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GPU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GPU</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/GPUEncoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GPUEncoding</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/VP9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VP9</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AV1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AV1</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Jellyfin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jellyfin</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/SelfHosted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SelfHosted</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ffmpeg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ffmpeg</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Encoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Encoding</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Codec" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Codec</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/h265" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>h265</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/h264" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>h264</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a></p>
