I'm compressing everything using, H.265 and videos are shrinking to sometimes 1/10th the size.. Is there who would give me reasons why I would not want to do this? I've read that it takes more processing power to watch these compressed videos, but not sure that will cause much trouble in the future...
I tried this automated across a large video collection and the quality was subpar because my CRV settings were weak despite looking fine on the test videos. Consider that a word of warning, validate many videos before removing the masters.
But with 300gb, storage is cheap enough that you could just keep the masters.
I've finally started compressing my 15 year, 300GB personal video collection..
