Hi everyone, can't remember the settings i used, it was converted to prores with mlvapp and used premiere pro to color correct the clips.
It looks nice.
I started scaling 1080p to 4k in MLVApp. Youtube then uses a different codec, even for 1080p. For me, the files began to look prettier.

i exported both to 1080 @50Mbps and 4k @100Mbps
the one i uploaded is the 1080p version, here's the 4k upscaled version:
some years ago when google bought on2 and developed vp8/vp9 i made some extensive tests but at the time vp8/vp9 where cpu intensive when playing, as far as i can see the youtube vp9 versions use half the video bitrate while maintaining the same quality as the h264 versions.
