I wish x265 gave us a way to change the SAO parameters, so we could adjust how the smoothing works in different luma ranges.

AQ3 isn't the solution for me...
I tried again yesterday... the file size doubled and still I didn't really
reach the quality I could achieve by defining zones manually.
SAO might add to it... but the issue is also there with SAO disabled.
In fact two of my past problems eventually seemed to come just from
the lighting / red area issue.
I wondered why Star Wars III gave me so much more trouble encoding than other Star Wars movies -> Answer: As Anakin turns evil here, the movie got a more reddish color coding.

Here the problem was in fact the character's dark red hair:

With Aladdin I have the same issue now... it's dark red all over the place and super-hard to encode due to that.
It's even a problem in bright scenes.
Everything is crisp... and than there is this character wearing a dark red Fez. And the Fez is blocky and blurry.
