gollark: My laptop and any recent Intel iGPU-having thing has VP9 hardware encoding capability, but when I tried that the filesize was way bigger than with software encoding; it's likely I just needed to tune it somehow, but I couldn't be bothered.
gollark: VP9 did work and encoding happened at not *unusably* awful speeds (0.25x).
gollark: I tried compiling AV1 encoders for some reason (I think seeing how ridiculously small I could make some videos without terrible quality?) but one of the things I couldn't get working and the others were either bad somehow or horribly slow.
gollark: Kind of bad performance generally, though.
gollark: Entirely reasonable! They have built-in UPSes and screens/keyboards for monitoring.
