4️⃣ suite photos

Avec @ente l'app sur smartphone s'améliore de mois en mois au fil des mises à jour, j'y retrouve beaucoup de fonctionnalités bien pratiques que j'ai choisi d'activer, en particulier la reconnaissance des visages et la géolocalisation des photos. Je sauvegarde mes photos au format #HEIC au lieu de JPG, ça prend en moyenne 3 fois moins de place pour la même qualité.

L'interface Ente est certes un peu moins souple que GPhotos, mais ça me convient bien comme ça.

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!
