> This project is a production with the goal of the smallest video size with minimal subjective compromises to image quality. This is not the hallmark of AV1, but close enough. This release should only contain changes to the video stream and audio tracks. The subtitle and attachment tracks are usually copied from the noted sources. Timings are not adjusted except in cases of extreme delay as a result of mixing sources. - `Sav1or-Pro`

The header above links to a comparison of S01E01 between the [JPDVD][source-dvd] (Deinterlaced), the same JPDVD filtered, our [SavI0r][comp-sav1] AV1, our resulting AV1, [AK][source-ak]'s AVC, and [Taedium][comp-td]'s AVC. Below are a couple of comparisons between the JPDVD and our AV1.
