I'm looking to update the Realbench benchmark to represent what people really use their PCs for in 2015. Currently it does MPEG2 DVD to h.264, but since no one buys SD media these days I'd like to understand what kind of video encoding people do to design a 'typical test' that's applicable to most users and still fun for OCers.

I usually have to transcode my source media (.avi or .mp4) to MPEG-4 (.m2t/.mpg) or WMV (.wmv), all that with Sony Vegas. If Vegas can't use the file because of codec reasons (typically MJPEG) I use MediaCoder to get a normal video file.
