-# FFmpeg Video & Audio Encoding
-
-Complete guide to codec selection, quality optimization, and hardware acceleration.
-
-## Video Codecs
-
-### H.264 (libx264)
-Most widely supported codec, excellent compression/quality balance.
-
-**Best for:** Universal compatibility, streaming, web video
-
-**Quality range:** CRF 17-28 (lower = better)
-
-```bash
-# High quality
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 18 -c:a copy output.mp4
-
-# Standard quality (recommended)
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libx264 -preset medium -crf 23 -c:a copy output.mp4
-
-# Fast encoding
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libx264 -preset fast -crf 23 -c:a copy output.mp4
-```
-
-### H.265/HEVC (libx265)
-25-50% better compression than H.264, slower encoding.
-
-**Best for:** 4K video, file size reduction, archival
-
-```bash
-# High quality 4K
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libx265 -preset medium -crf 24 -c:a copy output.mp4
-
-# Balanced quality
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libx265 -preset fast -crf 26 -c:a copy output.mp4
-```
-
-### VP9 (libvpx-vp9)
-Royalty-free, WebM format, good for YouTube and open-source projects.
-
-**Best for:** YouTube, Chrome/Firefox, open platforms
-
-```bash
-# Quality-based (recommended)
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libvpx-vp9 -crf 30 -b:v 0 -c:a libopus output.webm
-
-# Two-pass for better quality
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libvpx-vp9 -b:v 2M -pass 1 -an -f null /dev/null
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libvpx-vp9 -b:v 2M -pass 2 -c:a libopus output.webm
-```
-
-### AV1 (libaom-av1, libsvtav1)
-Next-generation codec, best compression, very slow encoding.
-
-**Best for:** Future-proofing, maximum compression, low bandwidth
-
-```bash
-# Using libaom (slow, highest quality)
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libaom-av1 -crf 30 -b:v 0 -strict experimental output.mp4
-
-# Using SVT-AV1 (faster)
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libsvtav1 -crf 30 -preset 5 output.mp4
-```
-
-## Audio Codecs
-
-### AAC (Industry Standard)
-Best quality for streaming, universal support.
-
-```bash
-# High quality
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a aac -b:a 192k output.mp4
-
-# Standard quality
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a aac -b:a 128k output.mp4
-
-# Low bitrate
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a aac -b:a 96k output.mp4
-```
-
-### MP3 (libmp3lame)
-Universal compatibility, good quality.
-
-```bash
-# Variable bitrate (best quality)
-ffmpeg -i input.wav -c:a libmp3lame -q:a 0 output.mp3
-
-# Constant bitrate
-ffmpeg -i input.wav -c:a libmp3lame -b:a 192k output.mp3
-```
-
-### Opus (libopus)
-Best quality at low bitrates, ideal for voice and streaming.
-
-```bash
-# Voice (mono)
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a libopus -b:a 32k -ac 1 output.webm
-
-# Music (stereo)
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:a libopus -b:a 128k output.webm
-```
-
-### FLAC (Lossless)
-No quality loss, archival quality, larger files.
-
-```bash
-# Lossless audio
-ffmpeg -i input.wav -c:a flac output.flac
-
-# Extract audio losslessly
-ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -c:a flac audio.flac
-```
-
-## Quality Optimization
-
-### CRF (Constant Rate Factor)
-Best for quality-focused encoding. Single-pass, adjusts bitrate for complexity.
-
-**CRF Scale:**
-- 0 = Lossless (huge files)
-- 17-18 = Visually lossless
-- 20-23 = High quality (recommended)
-- 24-28 = Medium quality
-- 30+ = Low quality
-- 51 = Worst quality
-
-```bash
-# Visually lossless
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -preset slow output.mp4
-
-# High quality (recommended)
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -crf 22 -preset medium output.mp4
-
-# Balanced quality/size
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -crf 25 -preset fast output.mp4
-```
-
-### Bitrate-Based Encoding
-Target specific file size or quality. Two-pass recommended.
-
-```bash
-# Calculate target bitrate
-# bitrate = (target_size_MB * 8192) / duration_seconds - audio_bitrate
-
-# Two-pass encoding (2600k video, 128k audio)
-ffmpeg -y -i input.mkv -c:v libx264 -b:v 2600k -pass 1 -an -f null /dev/null
-ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libx264 -b:v 2600k -pass 2 -c:a aac -b:a 128k output.mp4
-```
-
-### Presets (Speed vs Compression)
-Trade-off between encoding speed and file size.
-
-**Available presets:**
-- `ultrafast` - Fastest, largest files
-- `superfast`
-- `veryfast`
-- `faster`
-- `fast`
-- `medium` - Default balance
-- `slow` - Better compression
-- `slower`
-- `veryslow` - Best compression
-- `placebo` - Not recommended (minimal gains)
-
-```bash
-# Fast encoding (real-time)
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -crf 23 output.mp4
-
-# Balanced
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset medium -crf 22 output.mp4
-
-# Best compression (slow)
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset veryslow -crf 20 output.mp4
-```
-
-## Hardware Acceleration
-
-### NVIDIA NVENC
-5-10x faster encoding, slightly larger files than software encoding.
-
-**Requirements:** NVIDIA GPU (GTX 10xx or newer)
-
-```bash
-# H.264 with NVENC
-ffmpeg -hwaccel cuda -i input.mp4 -c:v h264_nvenc -preset fast -crf 22 output.mp4
-
-# H.265 with NVENC
-ffmpeg -hwaccel cuda -i input.mp4 -c:v hevc_nvenc -preset slow -crf 24 output.mp4
-
-# Quality levels (instead of CRF)
-ffmpeg -hwaccel cuda -i input.mp4 -c:v h264_nvenc -preset slow -rc vbr -cq 22 output.mp4
-```
-
-**NVENC Presets:**
-- `default` - Balanced
-- `slow` - Better quality
-- `medium`
-- `fast`
-- `hp` - High performance
-- `hq` - High quality
-- `bd` - Bluray disk
-- `ll` - Low latency
-- `llhq` - Low latency high quality
-- `llhp` - Low latency high performance
-

-
-# H.265 with QSV
-ffmpeg -hwaccel qsv -c:v hevc_qsv -i input.mp4 \
-  -c:v hevc_qsv -preset medium -global_quality 24 output.mp4
-
-# Quality levels

-```
-
-### AMD VCE/VCN
-Hardware encoding on AMD GPUs.
-
-**Requirements:** AMD GPU with VCE/VCN support
-
-```bash
-# H.264 with AMF

-```
-
-## Performance Tuning
-
-### Multi-Threading
-FFmpeg automatically uses multiple cores. Override if needed:
-
-```bash
-# Limit threads
-ffmpeg -threads 4 -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 output.mp4
-
-# Auto (default)
-ffmpeg -threads 0 -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 output.mp4
-```
-
-### Tune Options
-Optimize encoder for specific content types:
-
-```bash
-# Film content
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -tune film -crf 22 output.mp4
-
-# Animation
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -tune animation -crf 22 output.mp4
-
-# Grain (film with noise)

-## Codec Selection Guide
-
-### Use Cases
-
-| Use Case | Codec | Settings |
-|----------|-------|----------|

-| YouTube upload | VP9 or H.264 | CRF 23 |
-| Archive | H.265 or H.264 | CRF 18, preset slow |
-| Low bandwidth | AV1 or H.265 | CRF 30 |
-| Fast encoding | H.264 NVENC | preset fast |
-| Maximum compatibility | H.264 | profile main, level 4.0 |
-
-### Platform Compatibility
-
-| Platform | Recommended | Supported |
-|----------|------------|-----------|
-| Web browsers | H.264 | H.264, VP9, AV1 |
-| Mobile devices | H.264 | H.264, H.265 |
-| Smart TVs | H.264 | H.264, H.265 |
-| YouTube | VP9, H.264 | All |
-| Social media | H.264 | H.264 |
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Use CRF for most tasks** - Better than bitrate for variable content
-2. **Start with CRF 23** - Good balance, adjust based on results
-3. **Use slow preset** - For archival and final delivery
-4. **Use fast preset** - For previews and testing
-5. **Hardware acceleration** - When speed is critical
-6. **Two-pass encoding** - When file size is fixed
-7. **Match source frame rate** - Don't increase FPS
-8. **Don't upscale resolution** - Keep original or downscale
-9. **Test on short clips** - Verify settings before full encode
-10. **Keep source files** - Original quality for re-encoding
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Poor Quality Output
-```bash
-# Lower CRF value
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -preset slow output.mp4
-
-# Use slower preset
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -crf 22 -preset veryslow output.mp4
-
-# Increase bitrate (two-pass)
-ffmpeg -y -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -b:v 5M -pass 1 -an -f null /dev/null
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -b:v 5M -pass 2 -c:a aac output.mp4
-```
-
-### Slow Encoding
-```bash
-# Use faster preset
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast output.mp4
-
-# Use hardware acceleration
-ffmpeg -hwaccel cuda -i input.mp4 -c:v h264_nvenc output.mp4
-
-# Reduce resolution
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf scale=1280:-1 -c:v libx264 output.mp4
-```
-
-### Large File Size
-```bash
-# Increase CRF
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -crf 26 output.mp4
-
-# Use better codec
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx265 -crf 26 output.mp4
-
-# Two-pass with target bitrate
-ffmpeg -y -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -b:v 1M -pass 1 -an -f null /dev/null
-ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -b:v 1M -pass 2 -c:a aac output.mp4
