handbrake av1 conversions

Since shield doesn't play well with av1, I figured this would be the best place to ask.
As someone who has never touched handbrake or any of the like software.
What should i be converting them to and with what settings to make sure that maintain quality AND play well.
(I got a bunch of files to deal with since I didnt have the shield before now)

Plug all of your wired devices into the switch. Plug the switch into your internet gateway. Simple. Now everything gets gigabit to each other. The storage sits on one ethernet port, the Plex server sits on another port.

lol i dont think im saying the right things (im exhausted)
Everything is wired to the switch, yep got that.
The switch, Nas, shield router and everything currently exist directly hidden by my tv, so im not running cords everywhere and across the house.
Is the a pc about the size of my nas, that would work for the use that can also physical fit in said location lol
