I think this is the fault of the users who encode them. They don't do the bitrate calculus right. That's why I mostly avoid HEVC releases.

- voltagex_ 11y agoI don't think there's a Scene Standard [1] for HEVC yet. Even the one for x264 is a few years old and might not represent state-of-the-art. If you're talking about P2P groups - all bets are off. There's even major groups of regional cappers who still use XVid... as a hobbyist archivist this makes me very sad. 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_(warez) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_(warez) OT: personally, TV shows ripped off Blu Rays being 2GB / episode seems ridiculous
- tracker1 11y agoIt's a crapshoot.. I've seen some quality encodes with HEVC, and have been opting for HEVC 1080p when available at around the same size as 720p AVC. Most of my own rips of blueray have been 720p/x264, and I'm thinking about re-ripping HEVC for the better quality... size on my NAS has been a minor concern... but having it all available from kodi is the best.
