the problem with Handbrake currently is that even though it'll allow you to chose H265 10bit, and it'll take H265 10 bit input, but it still converts it to 8 bit first. so essentially it's still a 8 bit workflow, so missing a lot of the color information. one of their main devs confirmed that the full 10 bit pipeline is still in the works, and likely will not be completely overhauled for a while.

so does Ripbot fully support UHD 10 bit H265 now that it doesn't convert to 8 bit during the conversion? i downloaded the latest version of 1.23.1, and it indeed has the H265 10 bit function, just like Handbrake does, but i just want to confirm with someone, perhaps the dev, that there's no 8 bit process involved in-between if i chose the H265 10 bit option.

thanks
Yes it does everything in 10bit including filters, but be aware if you use at custom filter.
