To compile Duster libvpx from source, use the following commands in your terminal:
While VP9 offers incredible compression, it is notorious for being "slow" or "blurry" if not configured correctly. To "dust" your VP9 encodes means to properly tune the parameters to avoid these pitfalls, achieving the best VMAF (Video Multimethod Assessment Fusion) scores within a reasonable time. 1. Two-Pass Encoding is Mandatory
To achieve the best results, use the recommended settings for VOD: Recommendation Essential for efficient bit allocation. -crf 31 is the sweet spot for 1080p. -speed Maximizes quality for VOD. -tile-columns 2 (for 1080p) or 6 (for 4K) Enables efficient multi-core usage. -lag-in-frames Enables lookahead for better quality. When to Use Libvpx-VP9 vs. Alternatives
Used for fast encoding, often appropriate for the first pass. 3. Setting -tile-columns for Multi-threading
