Oh man. I THINK I finally found a solution for my neverending problem with red areas getting blurred and/or blocky.
People already gave me a hint to use 10bit encoding or playing around with the crqpoffs parameter. Both didn't really help.
This changed drastically now after I converted the source to YV24 colorspace and encoded it with Main 444 10.
Suddenly the crqpoffs parameter started to work wonders and setting it to -1 already brought back most of the details.
How to do it in StaxRip 1.7.0.6:
1) Click on the "AVS Filter" label. Click "Profiles".
2) Find the [Misc] section and add this line to the bottom: ConvertToYV24 = ConvertToYV24()
3) Add the Filter now via right-click -> Misc -> ConvertToYV24
4) Go into the x265 encoder settings
5) In "Basic" chose the Main 444 10 profile.
6) In "Rate Control 1" set CR QB Offset to -1.
