I compression not on by default nowdays? Anyhow, I would not run ZFS with compression disabled completely. There are edgecases where you want it. The meta data? I can't remember the details. At least active the compression that just compresses zeros.

I enabled it for my media storage, knowing that it wouldn't matter much, and indeed it doesn't. Compressratios are 1.00, 1.00 and 1.01.

Since you can control compression settings per dataset, I'd just use a separate dataset for the videos directory with compression disabled.
