Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh?
saltesc@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoI don’t notice it on a 75" TV.
But when 99% of the content on YouTube is struggling to just get focusing right, pursuing higher quality bitrates is a useless priority. It’s all trash amateur TV. Resolution is not a factor here.

Isint higher bitrate better for busy scenes with lots of movement? Like games that have a lot going on or tall grass in the wind.

Depends. While compressing the video, it will create repetition,.artificial motion blur, etc. Either through software or directly on the device itself with its own software—GoPros are notoriously bad for this, for example.
Then when uploading to YT, it has its.own compression—because billions of petabytes—which will introduce your classic.nearest neighbour type compression problems. Colour spots, blurring, flat.comtraats,.etc. All in an effort to keep bitrate and thus the file size down.
But as I said, it’s unusual to have content on YT of this quality where nitrate “ruins” the experience. There’s much worse problems at the forefront in amateur and/or.fast content video.
