Hi Ted. What's a compressor queue?

That sounds like a pretty typical target for 1080p, but like others have said you’ll have to try out all the options you listed that can use and see what the trade-offs are. If you know you definitely prioritize “x” then you can eliminate some of the options. For example, for multi-pass encodings, the bitrate can vary so while it may be 6MB per min at one point in the video, it might be over 1MB per 10 seconds in some other part. Also, I’m not sure about this but changing to grayscale might not decrease the bitrate as much as you’d expect, depending on the source format. What is the source actually?

Now we’re getting somewhere. x264/x265 are like the de facto gold standards for the software encoders for the ITU/ISO/IEC codecs, h.265 is more efficient wrt file size, and vpx is comparable if you need/prefer OAM family.

Re: [FFmpeg-user] Reducing video file size
As others pointed out, this very much depends on what you want to achieve (besides a small file size). But I try to offer a starting point for you to try and find your own compromise of size and quality. Usually, I would use a resolution of 1920x1080 (HD), but 1280x720 might be an option to reduce the size. A frame rate of 25 frames per second could be enough. But with typical codecs you will not get half the file size by using half the frame rate. So 720p and 25 fps could be a starting point. What is more important to you: a high resolution or a smoothly moving image? Then the vp9 codec (libvpx-vp9) and opus audio does a good job regarding bitrate and a high CRF value reduces file size. Just try 32 and have a look if you can tolerate the quality reduction and file size. And only as a last resort go below a 480 resolution and 25 fps. Audio bitrate is typically much smaller than video and there is not a log to gain here. But with the opus codec you can go as low as 64kbit/s if need be. Of course there are many more ways to reach a small file size. The numbers above are in the ball park of what could be reasonable for a small web-quality video.
