Thanks for the test. So it is useless to create appimage from one
rolling because they only work on other rolling.

I too have a lot of confusion about how CinGG treats colors in
specific cases. See the notions on Kernel.org if they can help you:

In the meantime, I'll post the ffprobes from my tests (project's size

The video, but especially the audio, seem to me to be of slightly
lower quality than the original sources.

Among the webm presets should also appear av1-svt.webm, the profile
created by Andrew; see image:
