ffmpeg -i "Young.Sheldon.S01E06.4K.mkv" Note the codec (likely AVC or HEVC) and audio track (DTS or AC3). Because sitcoms have limited motion (compared to an action movie like Avengers ), you can use a slower preset and a lower CRF value.

The Episode: Young Sheldon – Season 1, Episode 6 ("A Patch, a Modem, and a Zantac") The Problem: Your 4K/1080p raw rip of this 20-minute sitcom is taking up 3.5 GB. For a show that is mostly dialogue and static shots (the Cooper family living room), that’s overkill. The Solution: FFmpeg.
