AVEncoder

What it does

Tired of tweaking CRF, presets, and psy-rd for the best H.265 encode? Adaptive Video Encoder does it for you. It analyzes your video frame by frame — detecting noise, grain, and complexity — then picks the optimal x265 parameters automatically. Drop your file in, get the smallest size with the best quality. Supports HDR10, Dolby Vision, HLG, resolutions up to 8K, and all major formats (MKV, MP4, MOV, AVI, WebM). Linux only. Open source on GitHub.

Adaptive encoder for H.265, AV1 and H.264 that preserves your Dolby Vision. Frame-by-frame analysis picks the optimal settings per codec. Dolby Vision Profile 5, 7, 8.x · HDR10 · HDR10+ · HLG · film grain preserved — or cleanly removed with the built-in VapourSynth + BM3D degrainer. Optional HDR → SDR tone mapping. Graphical interface for Windows, Linux and macOS. 7-day free trial. Lifetime licens

  I compressed 10k PDFs into a 1.4GB video for LLM memory2025 · github.com · ▲61

  While building a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system, I was frustrated by my vector database consuming 8GB RAM just to search my own PDFs. After incurring $150 in cloud costs, I had an unconventional idea: what if I encoded my documents into video frames? The concept sounded absurd—storing text in video? But modern video codecs have been optimized for compression over decades. So, I converted text into QR codes, then encoded those as video frames, letting H.264/H.265 handle the compression. The results were surprising. 10,000 PDFs compressed down to a 1.4GB video file. Search…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  I built a frontpage for personal blogs▲783

  With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
