Encoding in R E D

[hardware_failure]

First off, I DO apologize if this has been discussed before, I did do some searches and didnt get much. Maybe I just suck at doing searches.

On to the post,

Whats up with… pretty much EVERYTHINGS problem to encode extreme RED?

I see it on DVDs, all flavors of MPEG4, digital television, you name it. You take all colors of the rainbow, they look fine, but whenever I see extreme red, I see extreme macro blocks.

I have noticed this with my own encodes, with pretty much all apps, all codecs etc.

Am I going insane or do other people also notice that over 50% of the time, bright red looks like garbage when digitally encoded? ¿Por que?

Thanks for any feedback.
