yes, original stream is 25mb
All the streams it made including the original uploaded one is 853mb, lol
The “large” one is 164mb so if you have “scale large images on” and you’re zoomed in enough/viewing on a low res enough screen you’ll get a recompressed 720p stream that is 164mb instead of the higher res 1600 x 900 one I uploaded that is 25mb
There’s another issue.. it uses crf=18 which is extremely excessive for x264 with 2160p for all iOS encodes so like the “pony girl” video I uploaded, original is 25mb but site one is 206mb
So if you want to view the full resolution stream that isn’t the 720p scaled one on your iOS device, you’ll need to download 206mb
164mb:

One of the devs is wanting to use cpu-used 5 instead of cpu-used 3 which will take 1.5 to 2x the file size for similar quality at the expense of taking probably not even 2.5x longer to encode which it doesn’t take T H A T long to begin with so..
Now the quality is kinda high right now and file size can be lowered but it should be lowered with same cpu-used.. otherwise file size will have to stay the same
I could be wrong on how much longer it takes because I don’t have the same CPU as the server but regardless it’s not worth 1.5 to 2x higher file sizes imo
