>>81281>10-bit h264Dumbest standard ever. Would be different if it was supported anywhere. The main reason why my CPU stays pegged at 100% for weeks on end. Same people that promote it shit all over x265 to. Even though it has native 10-bit color support and can be tuned to act exactly like x264 in all situations with some simple config switches.
I can't wait until they all move on to the next hacked together piece of shit codec modification instead of simply using something that works. I don't understand why the fansubbing community could never get in-line. We were the first ones to use DivX and later xvid. We were the first to use standard h264. We were the first using x265 and not AV1. But we're also one step beyond the rest of the planet for no good reason now other than people can't be content with something that works outside of mpv.
The video codec situation isn't even the worse part. The fact that we're still using .ass despite much better subtitling format came along years ago drives me crazy. I can't believe we're still using hacks to overlay signs instead of simple images in a format with proper formatting.
But then I remember that everyone that could code moved on years ago since they were chased out of the community by the come-latelys that never contributed anything of value. 9 out of 10 "fansubbers" now can't even read Japanese or do simple timing. Much less proper typesetting or encoding. They all adore "prosubs" and those people are even more incompetent somehow. These people gatekeep access to all the release channels to. It's so frustrating.
Meanwhile, I can release anything else to a word wide audience with good feedback and have it instantly mirrored all over the world for free. If I'm first I become the "proper" version and everyone else says good job, thanks me and sends greetings. They even get in contact to work together on future projects. Where the "fansubbers" actively work together to prevent us from releasing anything. Even if they refuse to work on the same show. Just out of spite.
It's really sad that it's less trouble for me to release American cartoons in a region where I can get thrown in prison (or heavily fined) for it than it is to release content from a country that can't take legal action against me. I also really hate seeing an inferior release
