Nostr Web Client

This was a 1GB file at 4000x2250 x2 at 60fps... I was able to compress it down to 88MB and still maintain a decent bitrate and resolution. It stays a fairly consistent frame rate except for one section where it drops pretty low. I'd say this is a pretty happy middle ground to handling large file sizes on Plebs in order to meet the 100MB upload limit for Blossom servers.

i use handbrake to compress all my shows before posting on nostr but even the most compressed 1080p is quite large

What is the average file size?

ODELL 5mo ago

depends on the length of the show

usually i can compress a 3.5gb source to less than 1gb

If you could ever send me the uncompressed copy of one (through a dropbox or wetransfer link or something else), I would love to use it to test how it goes on Plebs. The current algo I am using should see a 3.5GB file compress down to 75-85MB.

can you signal me via my contact info on odell.xyz

What compression are you using?

Luxas 5mo ago

Using the MediaRecorder API. Since plebs is a single page app, there’s no server-side to run ffmpeg. This was a middle ground I found that I think works reasonably well for a browser-based solution.

I haven’t used mediarecorder. Are you able to get these file sizes by exporting as a .webm?

I just realized that we’re probably talking video here 🤪
