Because that tool is shit. Download Open shot, it’s a free video editor that’s easy to use. Download https://sourceforge.net/projects/xdman/?source=directory it’s a video downloader, it’ll let you pull video from most sites. Once downloaded, import the video into your video editor, edit it, save as MP4 (@ correct resolution). Open file in your video downloader, convert to WebM.

Or maybe openshot has an extension that allows you to render videos as webM’s, I haven’t looked.

>doing lossy encoding twice

lol what the fuck

are you trolling maybe?

>he doesn't use ffmpeg for all things encoding

come on dude

I honestly never know that you could convert webms with mpv natively. I always used that one crop script (I don't use it anymore, so I can't check and see who made it, sorry) and passed the parameters on to ffmpeg.

>>943024

>not knowing that mpv uses ffmpeg

come on dude

>>943078

You should use it in the command line so you know exactly what you're doing. If the settings mpv uses to make webms don't work here then that isn't a problem with ffmpeg, its a problem with mpv since everyone else uses ffmpeg to make webms and they work fine.

>encoding videos with mpv

What the fuck?

original quote:

>import the video into your video editor, edit it, save as MP4

show me a single video editor which can do exactly this without reencoding, then we talk.

>>943057

Are you retarded? Webm can only hold VP9 VP8 and in the future AV1. NOT h264

And why would you encode anything into h264?

>>943163

If you're only thinking of the first part. Yes cutting a video without reencoding is possible.

Avidemux should do that without problems.

However you can't encode something into h264 and then into VP9 and call that process lossless.

>>943246

Because it's faster? Makes a big difference especially on weaker dualcore laptops.

>>943260

YOU CAN'T PUT H264 INTO A WEBM

>a big difference

To decode? No. Hell. I can watch YT with Iron on a fucking Pentium M. YT uses VP9.

Now kys.

Here you fucking lazy corpse:

The WebM container is based on a profile of Matroska.[2][4][5] WebM initially supported VP8 video and Vorbis audio streams. In 2013, it was updated to accommodate VP9 video and Opus audio.[6]

>aomdec still can't decode AV1 in realtime without stuttering on an FX 8350

I wonder how Jewgle will get around that issue.

>>943737

>not using a RGB codec

Enjoy your shitty colors.

>>943738

That's why the prevailing opinion is that AV1 wont become mainstream until it gets hardware support in the next two years.

>not using laserdisc and skipping the codec faggotry altogether
