Body: <p>i.e. a file is listed as being "1920x1080 HEVC Ma10p FLAC"</p>
  
  <p>So....resolution / h.265 video codec / ? / .flac audio codec</p>
  
  <p>On its own I'd guess the 10 stands for 10 bit depth, but the Ma is unknown to me. Other guesses is its some kind of h.265 preset.</p>

  "Main 10" stands for 4:2:0 10-bit color, and I'm Pretty sure "Ma10p" is just another way of saying Main 10.
