But the blocking doesn't change if you increase the x264 file size. Other things change, but not the blocking. I've been up to crf 14 with various DVDs, getting encodes that are bigger than the original MPEG2, and the block issue is essentailly the same as at crf 22. Sometimes the higher bitrate x264 encodes look worse, because they have sharper edges on the blocks.

So far as I can tell, if I find a solution to this it won't (just) be bitrate.
