Along the bottom of some encodes there are artefacts of what looks like 4 pixels high.
An S905 chip problem? The encode looks fine when viewed on a PC. I think it's been present in all builds.

ISTR there were H.264 decoding artefact issues in early S905 chips (when using a specific codec) because at the time the WeTek S905 devices were a little unique in using a later chip version that didn't have the problem .. but it's so long ago I forget what the technical details were. It was a specific profile or something. So, it may be possible.

Can confirm this actually happens. I am using a 8.2.3.1 custom build on my S905x box and noticed this phenomena in one of the x265 1080p videos. It's entirely possible some other x265 videos I've played were affected as well, but I only saw it in one of about 50-60 ones.

Bad movie rip. Not bug.

But it plays fine on MPC-HC on a PC.

Some decoders may handle bad rips better than others.
