YouTube Premium VP9 stream, which looks less blockier and bitstarved than the regular 1080p stream. Still a lot of banding, though.
Comparisons vs AVC stream

the premium stream actually looks worse in a lot of those comparisons tbh (unless the labels are just reversed)
RaptoR
yea in most of these comps the texture details are destroyed in the vp9 stream almost like it had been agressively denoised
