Zoom in x200
Left: 720p x264 --> 0.25 GB
Right: 1080p x265 --> 1.11 GB
I tested watching both on my phone:
- Without zoom, I didn’t notice much difference in visuals.
- The audio is stronger at the same level on the x265 version.
- I need +15 volume level (Android) to make the x264 sound equal.
What do you think, guys? Is it worth 4 times the file size?
I personally prefer 720p x264 for movies and SD for shows. I have have rpis and use jellfin web too so x264 plays better with them.
For a few select items ill get better quality at 1080p but these are trying times and disk prices are just going up.
