spirited away is a legit good movie (though with common ghibli problem of not really having the story do much other than deus ex machina out of everything at the end), just go with naruto fansubs to round out the post

I personally operate a rented dedicated server so storage is expensive/limited and the clients connecting to it don't always have the greatest bandwidth. I have just recently switched to h.256 for TV series and have noticed a fairly significant drop in storage usage (almost half the file size) with only a minor drop in picture quality.

I have been converting from 264 to 265, I have saved a lot of space, with proper setting of Handbrake, there shouldn't a noticeable diff between the original 264 to 265.

That would be an incredibly massive undertaking in some peoples cases with huge collections such as myself. Taking the time to convert everything over with large libraries is far worse than just buying more storage

my collections are growing fast as demand grows due to families request.
Also, I must say that I noticed a fast load time when I play x265 moves/Tv's on low power client system, may be it because the files are now smaller compared to original both on hardwired and wifi connections.

In the past I have been ripping most of my movies to 1080p x264 mkv's with a video bitrate of approximately 9000-10000kbps and a DTS or DTS-MA audio track with a bitrate of 1.5mbps. This was fine for myself as I had the internet connection to stream from my remote server at these bitrates and the hardware to direct play them. Fast forward to today, I now have a few family members connecting to my server, I am connecting a lot when I travel, and am generally finding more reasons to connect away from home. So I find that I am transcoding my movies more and more. To make matters worse my family members live outside of any city and have poor internet connections so they are limited to about 5mbps overall bandwidth. So I decided to start encoding movies using x265 as all the playback hardware supports it now including my android phone and tablet.

H.265 is not a codec with a wide spread future.

It has been rejected by the tech industry for good reasons (IP became toxic) and the Alliance for Open Media will be releasing their new AV1 codec in late 2017 or 2018. AV1 will replace H.264, H.265 and VP9 for all internet streaming media so there is going to be a ton of new hardware rolling out to support that.

H.265 will only be used in 4K Blu-ray, some TV services perhaps and personal video encoders, essentially it's going to be the DivX of out time which is ironic as it was some of the same companies that torpedoed MPEG4/DivX from becoming a standard internet media codec did the exact same thing to H.265.

I plan to stay with h.264 for the immediate future. Trying to convert 3000+ movies and 800+ TV shows doesn't sound like fun.

economy must be good if pirates can even get enough employment to not transcode movies to another format

lol look at AV1's wikipedia page:

Under patent rules adopted from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), technology contributors license their AV1-connected patents to anyone, anywhere, anytime based on reciprocity, i.e. as long as the user doesn't engage in patent litigation.[7] As a defensive condition, anyone engaging in patent litigation loses the right to the patents of all patent holders.[5]

cool so one company could hold the whole thing hostage if they own a patent? check

you've got it backwards. if company A owns a patent, and then sues company B because company B is using AV1, company A then loses the right to use the pool of royalty-free patents defined in the agreement. this is similar to how free software licenses with patent clauses have worked for years and years
