Guys let me get this straight. 10bit videos bring better color range(like, they remove banding) but they make the details/quality lower at the same bitrate as 8bit vids. Am I right?
I mean, encoder has to store 10bit pictures in same size/bitrate as 8bit pictures. I did two encodes, one was x265 8bit version and the other was 10bit. it looks like the 10bit version could use a little higher CRF/bitrate to look the same as 8bit version. Also, Noob question, what is the difference between main 10 profile and 10bit encoder? isn't it better just to use main 10 profile instead of 10bit encoder?

x265-Xbit-full -o test.mkv source.mkv --YOUR --OTHER --PARAM --HERE - or, use - -o test.mp4 to produce MP4 files. This way it'll use Haali MKV Muxer / L-SMASH MP4 Muxer to mux your hevc data on the fly when writing files. You can also use --opts 1 to skip writing all the param string into hevc header and still keep the SEI segment, While the --no-info option will completely remove the SEI. I suspect that there's still a bug inside mkvmerge. |

Mkvmerge add extra one SEI if mux raw HEVC stream, not add extra one if remux from MP4. x265 1.5+444 gives longer SEI (because --rdoq-level and deblock). If longer SEI is doubled, it crash with nVidia decoder.
My software LAV decoder stop working with your example after the SEI was tripled -- in your original MKV it was doubled, I demux video track and mux again to MKV (2 + 1 = 3). Workaround to this mkvmerge bug: first mux to MP4 and then to MKV not works with large files -- I try with 6 GB HEVC stream and mkvmerge crashes when remuxing from MP4. If you take v1.hevc file with nonempty SEI and execute: Code:
mkvmerge -o v2.mkv v1.hevc mkvextract tracks v2.mkv 0:v2.hevc mkvmerge -o v3.mkv v2.hevc mkvextract tracks v3.mkv 0:v3.hevc mkvmerge -o v4.mkv v3.hevc mkvextract tracks v4.mkv 0:v4.hevc mkvmerge -o v5.mkv v4.hevc mkvextract tracks v5.mkv 0:v5.hevc mkvmerge -o v6.mkv v5.hevc mkvextract tracks v6.mkv 0:v6.hevc ...

At least this is true on x264. With x265 there are still rooms for improvement. Let's see. To your second question. Main10 is a profile that also covers lower profile such as Main. It's the highest complexity a video can be. Thus with Main profile, the video can only be 8 bit, while with Main10, it can be 8 up to 10 bit. And with the coming Main 12 profile, it can be 8 up to 12 bit. |

I released a new beta version with some video encoder improvements and made a snapshot of both the help page and the code file that contains the defaults so later I can use a diff tool to catch all changes.

so, using main 10 profile is better than forcing the video to be 10bit(for lower crf/bitrate videos). Am I right? Quote:
Selecting auto-variance removes the --aq-mode switch and let the encoder uses the default value which is not auto-variance. Last edited by LazyNcoder; 30th March 2015 at 10:54. |

Another weekly, stable merge build.
x265 1.5+448-22a312799bb0 (GCC 4.8.2 EXE + DLL) x265 1.5+448-22a312799bb0 (GCC 4.9.2 UPX-EXE) It seems that the x265 project will allow easier configuring for native architecture optimized builds. If I would enable this feature, my builds would probably still be generated for SSE2 or SSE3, using AMD K10 architecture (Phenom-II). I did not yet change my workflow. |

@LazyNcoder
Thanks, I've missed it, here is a fix: https://www.dropbox.com/s/n5q0jhukdk....03.30.7z?dl=0 You should download EXE + DLL, drop the content in the x265 folder and run the batch file located in the x265 folder, I hope LigH unifies it. |

It's like you are looking for a driver to drive a personal sedan car but claim to require a commercial driving license, thus kicking away those who don't have one, and it's unnecessary. That's why we use the lowest profile that fits the video to increase compatibilities. |

What do you want me to do? Please explain more verbosely.
The GCC 4.8.2 package contains both static EXE and DLL versions because the default scripts by Multicoreware create both. If you intend to use only the EXE, omit the DLL; the DLLs are included only for developers who prefer to link them instead of calling the EXE. The GCC 4.9.2 package was compiled by the media-autobuild_suite which does not provide a DLL, only the EXE. I would not be able to change this script accordingly. Most GUI developers use the EXE only, anyway. I wonder if I should also disable UPX, the uncompressed EXE are easier to pack by 7-zip (more similarities among them). |

New speed test of 10-bit x265
I made new fprofiled builds of 10-bit x265 and compare them to my normal build with "-O2 -march=corei7-avx" options.

The x265 HEVC Upgrade
Until now, HEVC has been a technology for experts and hard-core video enthusiasts only. We have a fast, reliable HEVC decoder, called UHDcode, but we needed to find a way to make this available for everyone to try. x265 was available in source code form, but we didn't have an application available directly from the x265 team.
To make it easier for anyone to try x265 and experience the benefits of HEVC, today we're launching the x265 HEVC Upgrade. We've created a new Windows 64 bit application that lets you convert MP4 files to HEVC. There is a new Basic Mode which anyone non-technical person should be able to use. In Advanced Mode we expose the full feature set of x265. The x265 Encoder application is bundled with our UHDcode HEVC decoder, packaged as a Windows DirectShow filter; a plug-in for Windows Media Player. This upgrades Windows Media Player (64 bit) to play back HEVC video files (raw bitstreams or MP4 files with HEVC). The MSRP of the x265 HEVC Upgrade is $29.95, but for a limited time you can download for free at www.x265.com. We hope you find these applications valuable.

You need to set up an account, but don't need to give any financial information. Make sure to hit the "Apply Coupon" button (which has the code pre-filled) to make it $0.
Took me about 90 seconds from clicking the link to having it installed. |

I'm doing the procedure from the mobile phone and although it gave me a discount, it had already charged me with a quantity of 2, so I had to pay 29.95$
I cancelled the order and tried to put a new one with quantity 1, but there is no discount now. I see no coupon. Obviously I'm doing something wrong...
