I initially thought this was some sort of banding, but am unsure... is it maybe some sort of blocking or what?
Also another question I have is do you typically find banding on older grainy sources? I don't seem to notice it as much as I do on more recent digital stuff.
Thanks

Too much noise reduction might create the effect you are talking about.
Or less likely, extreme color correction.
(bottom half gamma=2.6, to exaggerate effect)
Is the pattern static, or slowly changing, or rapidly changing frame by frame?
Question 2 - Grain, like dither, can hide banding. Sometimes grain is good.

I'd say it is changing slowly frame by frame. That's how it is on the source (for both).

Too much temporal denoising probably. To fix it, I think I would add a bit of grain, but someone here may have a better idea.

Keep in mind that the 16 million 8 bit RGB colors map to only about 2.5 million 8 bit limited range YUV colors. So you can easily see gradients in YUV video if there is no noise to mask it.

Coarse quantization - codecs usually allocating lower amount of bits for dark areas - sometimes is better to perform or good denoising (NLM is OK) or even applying coring.
