A WEBRip has been compressed again, which can affect the final file size and quality, but is often done to achieve a more efficient balance. | | x265 | The video codec. | This is the primary reason for the file's efficiency. x265 is an open-source implementation of the High-Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard. Compared to the older H.264/x264 standard, x265 offers 25-50% better compression at the same visual quality . This means you get a much smaller file size without a noticeable drop in picture sharpness. | | ION265 | The release group. | This identifies the team responsible for creating and distributing this specific encode. ION265 is a subgroup of a well-known digital release group called ION10 , and this particular tag indicates that it is the x265 (HEVC) version of their release. |
