I will, but no earlier than in 13-14 hours. Must wait until current encode will finish. Hmm...I now realised, that after BIOS update I forgot to set the CPU back to 4.8GHz, so now encoding only at 4.2GHz.

I had to stop my previous encoding and start from beginning (sound card driver failure), but now my encoding options are closer to your proposition:
--preset slower --crf 17.0 --rdoq-level 1 --psy-rd 0.4 --deblock -1 If there will be too much blur I will try something stronger (maybe exactly your proposition). I want more details and less blur, but I don't want to destroy quite good and balanced 10-bit x265 default output. |

Are you totally sure that AVX Ivy Bridge is actually using AVX for everything and not SSE4 fo some part of work for example? I don't know this but have a feeling that AVX2 CPUs use AVX2 instructions for more work than older processors. This is just speculation though because I am not an expert, just a feeling because how big performace boost it gives. Last edited by Ajvar; 25th March 2015 at 16:36. |

Some of that is due to other microarchitectural changes, but I think the majority has been from AVX2 for a while now. And yes, SSE4 and straight assembler gets used for lots of algorithms even with AVX and AVX2. Although there are now lots of AVX2 optimized functions that don't have an AVX function. Checking the commits is pretty amazing to see the pace of AVX2 optimizations going in over the last month. |

Perhaps because you're too far away from a screen that size to notice. It's not just a function of screen size or just seating distance. Ignoring potential differences in visual acuity, it's a function of the ratio between screen size is and how far away you are from it.

I'm not looking to compare identical settings, I'm looking to get x265's detail retention level as close as possible to x264's and thus possibly benefit from the more advanced techniques it uses.

Running now at 4.2GHz only, as I am not by PC. But I noticed something interesting.... --pmode slows down encoding by about 0.3fps. Even if with --pmode, the CPU usage is at 98-100%, the encoding fps is slower. Without --pmode, CPU usage is about 80-85% but encoding fps is higher..

I remember this being mentioned already when it was introduced several months ago: Parallelizing mode decisions may be only useful under specific conditions. Possibly mainly for large dimensions. In my tests with smaller dimensions (up to 720p) and rather outdated CPUs, --pmode always slowed down the encoding.
Instead, parallelizing motion estimation (--pme) can speed up results, depending on the complexity of the encoding (a.k.a. preset). __ Out-of-schedule, here are some additional builds, experimenting with jb_alvarado's media-autobuild_suite. x265_1.5+420-24fdb661bb57.7z (MSYS, MinGW32, GCC 4.8.2, package from xhmikosr + 4x cross compile script, EXE+DLL) x265_1.5+420-24fdb661bb57.GCC492.7z (MSYS2, MinGW64, GCC 4.9.2, media-autobuild_suite, EXE only, stripped and UPX'ed) Last edited by LigH; 26th March 2015 at 16:01. |

I have a dual-cpu (6core/12thread each) machine and it's killing me (33% - 720p - slow preset - --aq-mode 2 --aq-strength 1.0). I'm using --pmode --pme --threads 48. it makes the final size a bit larger though(I think it lowers the quality too/not sure yet). Now I'll try it without --pmode to see what happens.
There's something I need to know though. someone mentioned that --frame-threads 1 would lower/remove the banding problem. I don't know if it's true or not( I mean I didn't test it yet) but I wonder if using options I mentioned above would increase the banding problem.

aq-mode 2 was default in previous versions of x265, and I did lots of encodes with it, and it's still my favorite. I like it better than aq-mode 1. maybe a little larger output sometimes(depends on the content) and the thing you said, never happened for me. (I'm using x265 since v1.2) |
