Hi all!

I'm working on re-encoding a bunch of TV shows from H264 to H265 as well as making the metadata more uniform (especially between seasons).

As I've completed a couple of shows, I would like to possibly give back to the community by shareing it so that more people could benefit from it.

What would be the best way for this? Since I download most of it from torrent, I am thinking of having it on torrent as well. How to make sure it gets the exposure it needs (i.e. seeding)?

Yeah, a lot of private travelers will not accept doubly-lossy encoded files as a rule. So you can't just go from 264 to 265. You need the original lossless file.

To OP, yeah, you want a seed box. Both to pin the file up and host it for a while, and to preserve your anonymity (the original seeder is under particular scrutiny.)
