New H.265 twice as efficient as H.264!

My point is (and no disrespect to vargo if he has any affiliation whatsoever with TOS as I am a Tears of Steel fan from way back… https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...rs#post7186967

But my point is that optimal compression produces images as visually transparent as possible to the original source. Whether it be compression advocates of HEVC or, for that matter, the RED codec (because one seldom knows for sure how much RED Kool-Aid one is being served on that site) as we go forward, for thorough evaluation, it be best to view samples at different bitrates to see how much they soften the uncompressed 4K source...or at least a ballpark internet screenshot simulation of different compression rates.

For example, such as samples of uncompressed 4K (be it 2160p60 or 2160p50 if you’re a Euro) vs. HEVC @ 10 Mbit/sec. vs. HEVC @ 5 Mbit/sec; otherwise, you really don’t know how much detail you’re losing in the compression process.

Penton man, what do you make of the curved 4k TVs coming to market?
