Last June, fans of Comedy Central – the long-running channel behind beloved programmes such as The Daily Show and South Park – received an unwelcome surprise. Paramount Global, Comedy Central’s parent company, unceremoniously purged the vast repository of video content on the channel’s website, which dated back to the late 1990s.

You might be able to convert to hevc (x265) and trim it down by quite a bit.

You will always lose a bit of quality converting though, even from 1080p to 1080p, but I consider it pretty acceptable for cartoons and things of that nature.

Have my main server back home, while I'm traveling I have a script to reencode to av1 onto my local machine, works beautifully and the quality drop isn't too bad (colors look weird but think that's the Intel xe encoder)
