At 4K resolutions, getting it wrong is pretty hard to see, but the lower the frame size, the more screen area an error will take up.
True, but the thing is that he was using chromaloc 2 in x265 but his input (the AVS Script output) wasn't, so it was just wrong. Either he specifies the normal 4:2:0 or he converts it to type2 and specifies chromaloc 2. That's what I meant
