Why are dark parts flickering? (buzzheavier.com)

I'm using mpv to play some FHD Bluray Remuxes on a 4K TV with all "smart" enchantments turned off (smoothing and whatever). Any darker colors flicker. Let me know if the uploaded video doesn't clearly show what I mean. Is there a fix for this?

I was going to guess compression, but if that is a blueray quality rip then maybe not. Does it happen with any other players, or is it just MPV?

    Haven't tried. I'll try VLC and update! Meanwhile, here are the exact file details, because I'm really bad with video meta data: 1080p, BluRay, Remux, AVC, DTS-HD, MA5.1

    Bitrate? I'm guessing its been upscaled or something anyway, because the office was never filmed in 1080p.

    mediainfo says variable bit rate, overall bit rate 32.6 Mb/s, bit rate 27.6 Mb/s and maximum bit rate 38.2 Mb/s. Variable bit rate? That cannot be how it was recorded, right? Some conversion thing to save space? That's insanely valuable knowledge regardless, knowing 1080p isn't the original resolution. How do you know? 😊
