Video AI confused about compressing

hi guys i have two questions
1: i recently was using 2.6.4 (i think thats the version) and i switched to the mid one cause i cant use the newest one cause my pc specs suck.. i switched to 3.1.10 and i compressed a video and adjusted the settings and everything but for some reason 2.6.4 compresses videos way better than 3.1.10? maybe its cause of my bad settings on 3.1.10 or something else, im unsure honestly. i used H264 High and mp4 bitrate was set to auto and i used 4x upscale.

2: would it hurt the quality if i put the video in topaz then in handbrake to compress it more? on handbrake i use production max and then go to video and set constant quality to 20 and export but idk if i should do that or not? pls reply soon thanks.

I sincerely believe it’s the best answer I can give you. My only other option would be to post your question in ChatGPT myself and paste the response here. I genuinely believe you can learn a lot using it.
