AV1 · CRF 28 · 720p · Opus · WebM

The scenario

Web tutorial platform (like freeCodeCamp) delivering screen recordings to developing nations. AV1 for bandwidth savings over VP9, 720p for readable code on small screens, CRF 28 for sharp text, Opus/WebM for browser-native playback.

The answer

Video CodecAV1
CRF28
Resolution720p
AudioOpus
ContainerWebM

The command

ffmpeg -i input.mkv -c:v libsvtav1 -crf 28 -c:a libopus -b:a 96k output.webm

Why

Screen recordings with code/text compress dramatically better than natural video. AV1 screen content coding tools can achieve 5-10x better compression for code tutorials compared to the same codec encoding a nature documentary.
