Washed out image after encoding SDR Remux to x265-10bit

Post by NoobieEncoder »

I've recently encoded a SDR BluRay x264 Remux using x265-10bit at slow, and there's this weird slight washed out color throughout the whole movie. Comparison here

I would understand the image being washed out if I was encoding an HDR source to an SDR source, but I've confirmed that the original source file is SDR. I've also looked at the two video files using different video playback software (VLC, MPC, MPV) and same thing: image is washed out on the encoded file

Any suggestions on what I can do to prevent the colors from being washed out?

HandBrake version (e.g., 1.0.0):
1.6.1

Operating system and version (e.g., Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, macOS 10.13 High Sierra, Windows 10 Creators Update):
Windows 10 22H2

Re: Washed out image after encoding SDR Remux to x265-10bit

Your original file didn't not have a color space tag set, so all you can do in this case is guess.
Bt.709 is the one commonly used for HD SDR and in Blu-ray, and the one guessed by HandBrake, but maybe the other players are guessing something else when you play back the untagged file.
Try to set the same tag to the source file, and see if it play backs the same as the encoded file.

Thank you for the help! I'll get right on that--quick question though, errr how do I set a color space tag to the original video? I reckon FFMPEG right? Sorry, super new to all of this

Figured it out--appended the BT.709 tag to the original video file

I've appended the same tag to the source file, but it seems to play back the same as the source file (pre being appended the colorspace tag bt.709), not the encoded file

Someone on Reddit mentioned it might be because Handbrake enabled chromaloc to 1, so I've tried setting that to 0 but there's still a slight washing out of colors--is there anything else I can do? Thank you again for the help!

I don't think the chroma location can do such shift, can you upload a short sample, 10 seconds, of the original file?

Here you go! I trimmed it using FFMPEG https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cbnD3f ... sp=sharing

I also did an encode with that 10-second clip and it yields the same slightly washed out color result

It's also just occurred to me that I should have taken a snapshot of my HandBrake settings as well--apologies for not including that

The source and the encoded file looks identical here in QuickTime Player. How did yo set the color tag in your source file to test it?

Okay, I think I figured it out--I think it is most definitely a video player issue

I went ahead and loaded both the original and the encoded file onto Plex, and I didn't notice any color shifting at all--after that, I transferred the files on my Mac and the same thing--no color shifting at all, so I went and updated MPV and... yeah, no color shifting at all

Sigh--thank you so much for helping me trouble shoot this and I'm so sorry for taking the time out of your day to solve an issue that was ultimately a user-error
