I found that the issue is happening to other x264 files as well, not just lossless ones. And the problem goes away if I do what you suggested. After I'm done converting this file, I'll send you a short clip with the other details you asked for. How do I send it though? It's about 50 MB in size.
Two questions:
1) When encoding with x265, the second pass of a 2-pass encode is way faster than the first. Is there a reason for this? Usually, both passes used to take around the same time, with no-fast-first-pass. The second pass is almost 3 times faster now. It's a very low bitrate (300 kbps, 1080p) encode.
2) Is there a downside to enabling "save RPS"? Will it slow down the encode, or cause other issues?
