Release

A complete release encoded in AV1 and OPUS for optimum size and quality. Files are named to support media servers like Plex using TVDB metadata.

Encoding Details:

A few considerations for those with discerning taste: seasons 1-4 source was converted from VFR 24000/1001-30000/1001 to CFR 24000/1001 (23.976 FPS) due to technical encoding limitations, some grain/noise is lost in both conversion and encoding, but is considered insignificant in regards to this level of compression. If this is unacceptable, please take a look at the sources instead.

This project is a production with the goal of the smallest video size without noticeable loss in quality (ie. artifacts, banding, loss of grain/detail, etc.). This is not the hallmark of AV1 - but close enough. - Sav1or
