I uploaded a HEVC version because no one seamed to give x265 a shot for ponies, I like small files and audio/video quality is very important for me.

I am not a real time uploader, I just encoded the whole season to help people save bandwidth!
Here are great real time uploaders I turn to when the episodes air:
goreqw
blee07
smieb

And more depending on who is active during the season.

The encoder versions are:
libx265 1.8
libopus 1.1.2
Encoded with ffmpeg with those options (the relevant ones):
-vf scale=1280:720 -sws_flags lanczos -c:v libx265 -x265-params crf=24 -preset slower -c:a libopus

It was down scaled from 1080 to 720 using the non default lanczos for extra sharpness. x265's default crf 28 is not good enough, there even is a noticeable difference between 25 and 24, 24 is quite good for MLP!

Opus is a new audio codec used for example by Youtube, that is sounds good at 96kbps, and I am very sensitive to audio quality.

If you want to talk about codecs leave me a personal message!
