Odd. I don't find that at all. You've set the quality high enough? On
the scenes I use (with lots of lines and 256-colour plots) 85% quality
is pretty well lossless. This codec supports only 16-bit colour, so
smooth gradients in colour can be reduced to bands in some
circumstances.

Here's a couple of examples:
