For H.264 and H.265 media, what bitrate and file size is as close to original quality as possible or the same as original?
For H.264 and H.265 media, what bitrate and file size is as close to original quality as possible or the same as original?
I recently started building a movie/show collection again on my home NAS.
I know that generally H.265 files can be 25-50% less bitrate than H.264 and be the same or better quality. But what's the golden zone for both types? 10 Mbps for a 1080p H.264 movie? And would it be like 5 Mbps for H.265 1080p to be on par with H.264? What about 4K?
For file size: would it be 25GB for a 2 hour 1080p movie to be near or at original Blu-Ray/digital quality?

Depends on the media. High motion live action is going to require a higher bit rate than low motion animation.
