Westworld S01e01 Hevc | ^hot^

I recently re-watched the Westworld pilot ("The Original") in HEVC format, and I’m convinced this is one of the best stress tests for high-efficiency video coding out there.

The fly on her neck is a nightmare for HEVC. Random, organic, high-frequency noise. The codec has to use almost double the bitrate just to resolve the insect's legs. Jonathan Nolan is telling you, algorithmically, that nature (the real, the chaotic) cannot be compressed. westworld s01e01 hevc

Let me know if there are any playback issues! I recently re-watched the Westworld pilot ("The Original")
