In my view, there are two more important considerations: 1. If the source is 10-bit video, encode it as such to preserve precision 2. You may want to consider encoding lower bit-depth source to 10 bits if the source contains flat gradients that may show banding after denoising and/or quantisation at the chosen bitrate. > > > -- > Best regards, > George mailto:[email protected] > _______________________________________________ > ffmpeg-user mailing list > [email protected] > http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user > > To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email [email protected] > with subject "unsubscribe". _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list [email protected] http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email [email protected] with subject "unsubscribe".
