x264 supports encoding 4:4:4 (i.e. no chroma subsampling) video. There's some very obvious cases where it produces better results, but it's typically just slower with no upside.
- ttoinou 7y agoThe GP is talking about using 4:4:4 but having lower bitrates for chroma channels than luminance
- WAHa_06x36 7y agoThat is still slower than subsampling.
- zeroimpl 7y agoBut it can produce a result which looks better at the same bitrate. It’s not all about speed.
- WAHa_06x36 7y ago"but it's typically just slower with no upside" was the original statement.
