                        An important point to notice is that the VAAPI

    Yes, and it looks like especially av1_qsv is highly optimized,
    because it is not bad to look at. The 10x larger av1_vaapi is at bit
    sharper and smoother at pan/tilt movements (I used tripod for the
    original source camcording to a HDMI connected BD hyperdeck shuttle.
    Later I transcoded this test file to cfhd as intermediate format
    with ffmpeg).<br>
    Another thing I mentioned in my first post here, is that the
    encoding speed in all these cases independent of bitrate, looks to
    be about the same 45-46 fps<br>
