AV1 Wizard
AV1 command generator for creating AV1-encoded files with SVT-AV1
Always exercise caution when copying and executing commands from the internet.
Input & Output
Recommended: .webm or .mkv containers. MP4 works but requires AAC audio instead of Opus.
Timing
Optional. Time format (1:30, 00:01:30) or seconds (90)
Optional. Time format (2:45, 00:02:45) or seconds (165)
Video Encoding
Default: 30. Lower = better quality/larger file
Speed/quality tradeoff. Lower = slower but better quality
Optimize for screen recordings/slides
Must include time unit: 's' for seconds or 'ms' for milliseconds
Optional. Example: scale=1280:720
Colon-separated format. Example: bit-depth=10:tile-columns=1
Audio Encoding
Optional. Leave empty or 0 for no audio
Metadata
Note: These metadata fields are optimized for WebM/MKV containers, which have excellent metadata support. MP4 has limited support and only accepts year (not full dates).
Overrides auto-generated encoding info if provided
Format: YYYY-MM-DD (e.g., 2025-01-15)
Advanced Options
Optional. Custom FFmpeg parameters
