Show HN: I developed a video codec for screencasts that reduces videos by 70%
For personal use, in the last months I've developed a video codec for screencasts like tutorials, presentations, qa, etc. That reduce the size of the video by 70% (more or less). Now Im thinking in to sell this as a service for business who use it like courses, tutorial, or Qa videos uploaded to github for example.
Real result: 60min tutorial goes from 3.2GB → 800MB
Built in Rust. CLI for now, considering a $20/mo service.
Would you use this? Thoughts?
What's the Weissman score?
Hahaha I guess 2.9
How does it compare to FFV1?
Well.. i think FFV1 is for keeping perfect quality masters, mine is for making small files people can actually download or reduce storage quotas. Different problems!
It sounds like your bitrate is not that much lower though. You need to be 10x better than existing free codecs.
