Do you prefer x264 or 265 HEVC?
Do you prefer x264 or 265 HEVC?
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?

i have always wondered the difference between the two encodings (beyond the obvious filesize). thanks!
i am also still lamenting the shutdown of RARBG. :(
Both allow for various degrees of parametrization between compression rate, quality, and performance. HEVC/H.265/x265 is just better at it - it allows for better compression at the same quality. Same for 10 bit. Same for AV1.
If you want maximum compatibility to players/playback you take 8 bit AVC/H.264/x264.
