Hello just making a poll, which one do you prefer? personally I prefer x265 but since the rarbg falldown i've seen that almost all 1080p rips are in x264, what do you think about that, and do you recommend any place to find more x265 content beside those in the megathread?

The joke was precisely that i was to dumb to properly understand this post. Thank you very much for your explanation. I definitely see the benefits x265 can have now. And i may actually use that knowledge when i see download files for both codecs.

I take it the images in the post aren’t the greatest reference then as one of the squares contains both background a portion of a face.

Makes me wonder what ai will allow us to do in the future knowing exactly what information can be compressed and what focus points must remain highest quality.
