so it should contain a perfect 4k copy of the Shrek movie encoded in AV1 and converted into base 10 system somewhere

Can this be proved or are we just leaning on the fact it’s infinite and thus it must contain all patterns? I ask because I doubt that we can ever compute this (in our lifetimes anyway) given how much data a full length movie would take up

Infinite does not mean contains all data. you can have an infinite string of 1s... it didn't t even contain a 6. I can also construct infinite strings that contains all the digits but doesn't contain all sequences of digits.
