Re: Recommend Settings for 4K MP4 Test Video?
mduell,
"Pick the built in 4K preset suitable for your playback environment." Checked all the presets did Not find a 4K preset for Android.
Want to choose a 4K preset that will work with all (or most) 4K TVs.
Appreciate your suggestion!
Thanks
Ken

mduell,
Thanks for the tip!

Question: What RF setting do you use for 4K?

JohnAStebbins,
Thanks for the comments and link!
"If you run your own tests (as MiniSiets has done), you can see the difference in both quality and file size of 10 bit vs. 8 bit encoded content even when starting with an 8 bit source."
Have you posted any tests of 10 bit vs 8 bit?

rollin_eng,
" But why?" to my Was especially impressed by Dust and Scratches filter!
