Hi guys, I would like to know, how to improve my setting, Iam quite satified, but there is problem with red color and if there is sometig to change for encoding normal new movies.

Someone told me, that there is no reason to use subme 7, I am use to from x264 use subme 10 so I thought that it could be usefull.

Thank you for your advice and some explonation.
In x264, RDO is tied to subme. So higher levels of subme also incorporate higher levels of RDO.

Subme and RD(O) level are separate settings in x265 and I personally don't think it's worth using anything higher than subme 5.

Whenever I've tested, it's never actually been worth it to use anything higher than subme 3 really which is the lowest subme to include chroma residual cost.

I'd definitely choose --rd 5 (or 6 since they're the same) plus --rd-refine over subme 7 everytime. Though that will half your encoding time so I rarely ever bother with that either
