      You should! It can reduce file size up to 50% while still keeping a good picture. Definitely worth looking into.

      No. Save original files at highest resolution possible, such as Apple Pro Res - archivists agree it will be around a century. Storage has never been cheaper. Pro Res affords many benefits in color correction / editing. Transcode originals to lower resolution for posting online.

      You two battle this one out. I haven’t the time to convert thousands of video files to Apple Pro Res nor the inclination to further reduce their resolution. They’ll remain as they are.

      Well ProRes wouldn't help for the videos you've already got. Now transferring tapes directly to ProRes or .mxf while keeping the proper interlacing would be ideal! But for the amount of content you've got, H.265 wouldn't be the worst way to compress video.

      I’d rather just get more disk space.

      In that case think about converting directly from tape to H.265, that'll save more space and look better than what you're already doing. Not sure what your tape conversion setup is, but if it supports HEVC/265, do it!

      I digitize tape to DVD-R, then convert the DVD-R to .mp4.

      Assuming you're using Handbrake to convert the DVD .vob to .mp4 (if not, check it out), that could be the point where you make the H.265 mp4 file.

      I use Handbrake only to convert 4:3 videos that have been stretched to 16:9 back to 4:3. thanks for the suggestions, but, again, I’ll continue to do what I do.

          I use ANYMP4 to convert the DVDs.

          Looks like that can do HEVC MP4 if you ever wanted to try. I'd still say look at Handbrake though for full DVD to MP4 conversion since it runs on ffmpeg, which is the gold standard for converting files.
