Description
This encode aims to improve quality for 1080p SDR.
Netflix 1080p SDR is terrible, 1080p HDR saves it but its almost 3x bigger with no extra benefit.
Netflix 4K SDR (10bit) is the best, but its clearly upscaled from its native 1080p, but still benefits from higher bitrate and more sane compression.
Even the better 4K suffers from minor blocking and haloing, a bit unnatural sharpening, and the overcompressed noise acting as an weird backed texture.
Sources:
4K video source
Subtitles and main audio
The 4k source have passed for this filtering:
4K luma -> deblock qed -> minor CAS -> downscale to 1080p (hermite bicubic linear) -> small fine_dehalo
The chroma is also downscaled, to fit the YUV 4:2:0.
Plus FGS to readd the noise that was supposed to be there.
Then encoded with my fork of AutoBoost Av1an v1.67. (Settings on the metadata).
It is not perfect thought, but still a bit better.
Comparative vs the standard 1080p netflix source:
