Here is how to transcode, compress, and remux this specific episode without destroying the nostalgic, warm color grade of the show. Before running commands, inspect the file:

ffmpeg -i "Young.Sheldon.S01E06.4K.mkv" Note the codec (likely AVC or HEVC) and audio track (DTS or AC3). Because sitcoms have limited motion (compared to an action movie like Avengers ), you can use a slower preset and a lower CRF value.
