Nothing like a quiet Saturday abusing the homelab with video encoding.
#encoding #av1 #homelab

A screenshot of `btop` showing the VM being completely swamped from a video encode via SvtAv1EncApp.

Oh yeah, this is gonna take a long while. Time to let it do its thing and enjoy some beers outside for a nice Saturday.
#sisyphus #av1 #encoding

Doing a test with `av1an` and `SvtAv1EncApp` (`svt-av1-psyex`). This poor laptop is absolutely getting hammered at the moment...lol
#svtav1 #encoding #av1an

A screenshot of btop showing all of the cores at around 100% as the encode encodes.

Having trouble with my container, seems like it's using the incorrect version of the `SvtAv1EncApp` which is really annoying. Went ahead and just slammed the `psyex` version into `/usr/bin` and now everything is happy.
#encoding #av1an

The `av1an` output showing an in-progress encode via the logs.  Things are looking good....

Final optimizations for the Dockerfile, and the new image is now under 500MB which is a heluva-lot better than the original 1.3GB. The results are good, images are now in Forgejo, and even better: they work.
#homelab #encoding

A screenshot of the Docker container for the Sisyphus client coming in at 493MB.

Wooo, now have Docker images for the `sisyphus-client`! Still not happy with the overall size of the images or how I'm versioning them, but they do make things easier to deploy.
#docker #sisyphus #encoding

A screenshot of the new Sisyphus Client image in my personal Forgejo package repository.  Even managed to get some of the LABELs right on the fourth try.
