The official BD is unfortunately an upscale. It’s not terrible, just really soft.
It’s a reasonably good show, I recommend it.

So how much years did this take to encode?
2ndfire (uploader)
It takes about 48-72h per episode per thread (single threaded) on a 9880H(8/16) NAS @3.0Ghz and I run 10 instances at a time due to ram constraints. (each thread is ~1.3GB max)… so a week+ a few days?
The NAS draws ~50-60W under max load, so it’s fire-and-forget really…
The builds of ffmpeg and aomenc are custom compiles with Ofast and march=skylake and FLTO(aomenc only, this borks the ffmpeg build) and PGO enabled, but that doesn’t get me more than a couple percent extra speed to be honest.
P.S. just use ffmpeg for encoding AV1, I was testing aomenc. Only use aomenc if you’re going to be using noise tables (which I do).

Thank you for this. I was just thinking about this show when I came across some art from it in a folder.

I did not understand a single thing what the uploader said in the comments, but I guess it’s a good encode.
Thanks

Thanks!!!

Anyone have issues with playback? Can’t seem to play in VLC 3.0.11, I think due to SSA (the video doesn’t advance). I can’t seem to play with MPC-HC (Nightly, 64-bit) 1.9.6.24 (123df411d) as the video is choppy in action scenes.

all i wanna know is how the first comment knew encoding this took long cos i was looking for that placebo option but my very shallow knowledge of encoding could not find the answer

Because it is an AV1 encode, for which hardware acceleration is rare, meaning that slow software acceleration was used.

This won’t play in MPC with CCCP installed. It’s the first time I’ve ever been unable to watch an anime encode, which makes me think there’s something wrong with this one. Here’s the error:

time to move on to k-lite bro ^
even i had to make the switch cos CCCP is just too outdated
sink789
Either that or just use mpv. That handles everything
2ndfire (uploader)
Do not use k-lite, it’s years outdated. It doesn’t even do 10bit correctly by default (MPC-HC incorrect color range conversion)
