                What confuse me more, is that Cingg rendering seems <span><a rel="noreferrer noreferrer">out
                    of proportion</a></span> 2.5x faster than
                corresponding transcoding the same hdv file using ffmpeg

                loading the input file, and ffmpeg not(?)<br>

    Thank you. Yes, with parameters "preset 6" and "crf 35" the
    Cingg/FFmpeg rendering speed matched:<br>
    <blockquote><font face="monospace">Cingg: ** rendered 5972 frames in
        84.437 secs, 70.727 fps<br>
      </font></blockquote>
    At first I wondered if perhaps different CPU core utilization had
    been used above. I verified now with top that Cingg used CPU
    1400-1500% on a 12-core (8-mt/4-st) model: 12th Gen Intel Core
    i7-12700KF.<br>
    <br>
    I also had a look back into our January conversation about SVT-AV1
    parameters. As already seen above, Cingg output what I think are
    SVT-AV1 defaults<br>
    <blockquote><font face="Courier New, Courier, monospace">Svt[info]:
        SVT [config]: BRC mode / rate factor                 : CRF / 35 
      </font><br>
    </blockquote>
    Therefore I suggest that the Cingg preset make use of the same
    SVT-AV1 defaults, to avoid confusing.<br>
    <br>
    Another suggestion from the Simple SVT-AV1 Beginner guide, is to
    always use 10-bit encoding:<br>
    <a href="https://gist.github.com/BlueSwordM/86dfcb6ab38a93a524472a0cbe4c4100" target="_blank">https://gist.github.com/BlueSwordM/86dfcb6ab38a93a524472a0cbe4c4100</a><br>
    <ul>
      <li><font face="Times New Roman, Times, serif">I always recommend
          to use 10-bit (<code>-pix_fmt yuv420p10le</code>) no matter
          what. It provides a good quality boost in all cases,
          particularly in darker shades and noisy stuff.</font></li>
    </ul>
    I tested this yuv420p10le pixel format with Cingg too (no yuv42210le
    pix_fmt supported by SVT-AV1 yet): <br>
    Result: 10-bit a bit slower rendering and smaller file size, both my
    samples looks good in my eyes.<br>
