H.265 & Firends...

Post by Super Sapparod »

Hi,

What are the differences between the H.265, H.265 10-bit and H.265 12-bit and for what use should i choose one of them?
Thanks

How many bits are used to represent colors.

With handbrake, because everything is handled internally as 8-bit data, 10- and 12-bit versions of the encoder are marginally better in some cases, but not necessarily.
