Missed out on Black Friday? - The Cyber Monday offer is still live! [USA,UK,NL,DE]

InceptionHosting · December 2021

Reposting this as a new offer as it is likely lost in the old BF/CM post now.

We said we would keep this order live until 12 hours passed without an order and so far so good, we got close today down to 45 minutes and someone made sure they reset the clock!

We got a LOT of feedback saying the disks were too big and the bandwidth was too high in the black Friday offers and asking if we can do the same deal as last year etc.

So the Black Friday coupons have been expired and we are doing a final sale based on the now reduced to match resources from last year sale on 2, 3 and 4 GB Ram plans in London, Frankfurt, Amsterdam and Phoenix.

These offers will expire once 12 hours have passed without an order or we simply run out of stock so don't hang around

NO COUPON NEEDED JUST SELECT YEARLY BILLING

Then you get some feedback from me that I really like the big disks on the Black Friday offers (1 GB RAM with 40 GB disk) - not sure how disks can ever be too big...

Nekki · December 2021

I would like to have a word with whoever thinks the disks are too big. I would like much bigger disks.

miu · December 2021

Yes is the same what i would to glad see at Inception - large SATA space or hybrid VPSes (w raid10, not parity raid storage)
Inception is after fusion w Clouvider and with their HQ 10G networks now totally awesome provider, but only this thing miss me..

Encode your videos to 720p instead of 1080p, sugarlips.

So here's a thing - I did start off with SD vids and decided to jump straight to 1080p. I strongly regret that decision now and wish I'd gone 720p, however rebuilding a collection of fairly hard-to-find stuff in 720p is not a task I'm looking forward to, despite the fact it'll save me a shitload in storage.

If you can't see the pimples - it's not worth having it.
4k or nothing!

Andrews · December 2021

if reencoding old videos to save space then better upgrade codec (i.e. MPEG4 -> HEVC) than giving up resolution

I can actually do that now I have more space, but I suspect its's going to be a ball ache to do given the videos are from such varied sources.

Just go straight to AV1 now, its even better than HEVC

Does it use Middle-Out compression.

webcraft · December 2021

Not sure for what you need so much NVMe storage. I use these machines for computing tasks and send the resulting files to a storage location (which is HDD/SAS).
E-2286G is this new? Where?

there is no hardware accelerated encoding yet (software encoding is veeeeeeery slow), and hardware decoding is only present on latest generation top graphics cards

so, it is too early for AV1

Check SVT-AV1 encoder, if you want gui then https://github.com/Alkl58/NotEnoughAV1Encodes/releases

Software/CPU encoding is 2.5x realtime on Ryzen 3700X (Source is 1080p 24fps). I wouldnt call it very slow, especially if you look how big differences in perceived quality there is between two codecs.

Its not that slow as it used to be (3fps on reference encoder). SVT-AV1 is made by Intel & Netflix and its crazy optimised.

In terms of decoding... its just 1080p, you dont need Ryzen to decode it.
"its too early"... what? Netflix uses AV1 from last month on Android, PlayStation, Smart TV etc and it works fine.

Premium provider. There should be no questions about "should I buy" or "is it better than X". It is better. Go and give them money so you can enjoy rare service while it lasts.

I have had a promo VPS with InceptionHosting for almost one year. I snatched the 25EUR/year one in another location this time. Can only recommend. Highly performant, had zero downtimes (network, system) and network quality through Clouvider is top-notch.

Couldn't resist. Got one :-)
Clouvider network is entirely too amazing to miss out on a deal like that.

I would get one if these had more storage space.

Damn those nincompoops that said the disks were too big.

If I order Phoenix, is it a guarantee I get one? Or is it mixed in with the pool?

Nice, I didn't see the UK location in the main BF thread was lucky to see it here and snag one.

What's wrong with your overparanoid fraud detection system? I've put all my correct, faithful personal information in the system, and it still says it's fraud? Why? I am a fraud or you are fraud?

jsfwang · December 2021

Or you simply a racist?
