Hello. I'm a video codec n00b, please assume that I know nothing in this area.
I'm using a brand new Intel ARC A750 card to encode to AV1 much faster than with my i7-6700. I literally just installed the card into my machine a few minutes ago and this is the first thing I'm doing with it.
I'm trying to get reasonably the smallest file size for my video library using this file as a test as I'm running out of disk space.I'm trying to encode a video from a .MWV file (codec as per VLC = WMA2 48KHz, 32bps; WMV3, 1280x720, 25fps) to an AV1 video (I think it's only the .MKV container file format?) If you need a reference, I uploaded the video to youtube as well a while ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juoVrC-ba0c
Steps to reproduce the problem (If Applicable):
I got an error on the "Quality" encoder preset.
Using QSV for the AV1 with Constant Quality set to 20 with the Balanced preset works fine.
Using QSV for the AV1 with Constant Quality set to 20 with the Speed preset works fine.
As a side question, because I'm trying to minimise the size of my library (a tiny bit of loss of quality is ok) and I haven't even started encoding my DVD collection yet, would you recommend that I use an average bit rate instead with two passes, or are those options not applicable to AV1 please?
HandBrake Nightly 20221023060214-8bc44dfb6-master (2022102801)
I'm using the Nightly because I didn't see AV1 in the normal build.
Operating system and version: Windows 10 21H2 OS Build 19044.2130. Using the latest publically available Intel Arc driver of 31.0.101.3490
