Hi10P and 8-bit encodes
Aerah:
Any evidence that this banding cannot simply be fixed by using a dithering shader?

I seem to recall saying that client-side post-processing is heavy, in which case, why were you complaining about 10-bit again? If I were to pick a larger 8-bit encode which still requires another deband post-processing and a smaller 10-bit encode that doesn't require any more post-processing, I'd definitely pick the latter.

Hey hey hey, you can't just let 8-bit encodes disappear! I watch anime on my tablet too you know! I don't feel like re-encoding every single show I want to watch on it. This is just some war that some 10-bit fanboys want to win no matter what. All they do is watch their anime on their awesome PC and don't care about anyone else that watches it on something else. BakaBT is a community website that also allows the less technology gifted people to watch things on their tablet or other machines. You want to feel so elite to say "just re-encode it" to everyone that wants to watch it on something other than a PC?

Man... are you totally sure you aren't saying that just because it coincides with your own opinion? Also, if it isn't democracy, why do you post here with all the others? Unless you do it for the secret police's convenience's sake (since this isn't a democracy).
P.S. Again, hooray-10bit people have nothing to lose regardless the outcome of the poll, so they should imho take their 8bit enemies into consideration more than they do, here. What you dudes do is more like offering assistance to your landlord when he plans to increase you neighbour's rent.

If you want to get the best quality, you will have to give up on some CPU, and go the advanced route after getting CCCP:
- download and install lavfilters
- download and install madVR
- set up lav and mad to be used as default.

Seriously, stop recommending madvr to people. You are not going to help them after it doesn't work out, are you.
It takes a serious gpu to run it, so at least a put warning there. What if the poor soul you "helped" had some IGP or lowend card like Radeon 5400 or something? They won't even manage bilinear resizing, not to speak about bicubic! Fun fact: my directx9 radeon does better scaling than bicubic, using bloody overlay mixer.
So do the world a favour and only go recommending trusted and tested stuff, like CCCP.
Edit: Sorry for the overreaction, but I keep seeing these "tips" in many "guides" lately. People are way to confident when making those, in reality they are just unaware of the pitfalls.

Don't get mad at me, I said it quite clearly that if you want the best quality possible, you should use madvr, but you will ,have to sacrifice CPU to it. And that's ture. madVR does give you the best possible quality for 10bit. The fact that it requires more CPU is the sacrifice you have to make. If you don't want to or can't, then you stick with EVR or some other filter.
