+### optimize-old-videos.js
+
+Before version v1.0.0-beta.16, Peertube did not specify a bitrate for the
+transcoding of uploaded videos. This means that videos might be encoded into
+very large files that are too large for streaming. This script re-transcodes
+these videos so that they can be watched properly, even on slow connections.

+### REPL ([Read Eval Print Loop](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest-v8.x/api/repl.html))
+
+If you want to interact with the application libraries and objects even when PeerTube is not running, there is a REPL for that.
+
+usage: `node ./dist/server/tools/peertube-repl.js`
+
+"The default evaluator will, by default, assign the result of the most recently evaluated expression to the special variable `_` (underscore). Explicitly setting `_` to a value will disable this behavior."
+
+- type `.help` to list commands available in the repl, notice it starts with a dot
+- type `.exit` to exit, note that you still have to press CTRL-C to actually exit, or press CTRL-C (3 times) without typing `.exit` to exit
+- type `context` to list all available objects and libraries in the context, note: `Promise` is also available but it's not listed in the context, in case you need promises for something
+- type `env` to see the loaded environment variables
+- type `path` to access path library
+- type `lodash` to access lodash library
+- type `uuidv1` to access uuid/v1 library

+- type `uuidv5` to access uuid/v5 library
+- type `YoutubeDL` to access youtube-dl library
+- type `cli` to access the cli helpers object
+- type `logger` to access the logger; if you log to it, it will write to stdout and to the peertube.log file
+- type `constants` to access the constants loaded by the server
