I'm able to watch 10-bit on my smartphone with SW decoding, so why can't you watch 10-bit on your tablet?

They aren't focusing on it, so if you want something that can be played on a device which can't use sw decode, I would say sites like animebytes would be better for you.

And why does it only show some banding, but not across the board? And why almost none in madVR screencaps?!?!

Turns out, you cannot notice the difference on 16-235 screens (AKA, 99% of laptops).
Just opened the screenshots also notices zero difference.

Most hardware ASP players don't do well with GMC or QPEL. I also have some files that refuse to play at all.

Spreads the seed pool out more than needed

--- Quote from: Puiu on January 03, 2012, 01:07:40 PM ---It is clear that the vast majority want 10bit to be treated equally with 8bit.
--- End quote ---
Pardon?
42% of respondents feel the need to push 10-bit in this poll. 7% didn't vote and 51% want at least one 8bit slot. The poll options fragment those people but that doesn't change the fact that they are a majority.
And there is still the likelihood that active proponents are more likely to vote here, compared to casual watchers that can be expected to have higher interest in HW-compatible, conservative format.

Irrelevant. People who would want an 8-bit encode won't seed a 10-bit one.

I don't think that's true. First, most older players refused your file if it actually didn't have a divx fourcc. Then as mentioned, there is the question of qpel and GMC (bonus: xvid's gmc can be incompatible with player that supports divx's gmc).
Xvid files are widely compatible only as long as you keep to the basic setup, and that's what many encodes use (no qpel, no gmc; note that a lot of encodes don't even use bframes).
