For those unaware, the current encodes contain "only" 8bits per color channel, 
generating the known 16 Million colors. That's a lot, but looking at each 
channel separately, we have only 256 shades for each color. In video compression 
that can cause problems, and the best known of them is the banding.

Basically, Hi10p is a profile of the pattern that uses H264 10 bits of 
information to represent color. Thus, it is possible to store 1024 colors per 
channel (against the aforementioned color 8bits 256). This yields a total of at 
+1 billion colors.
What does this mean? Simply decrease the banding, better colors and smaller 
sizes (since there is no need to base dithering noise) in YUV video files.

Of course, not every player that can play videos of 10 bit color. We recommend 
using VLC (VideoLAN) or KMPlayer latest that has native support for 10 bit, or 
installing codecs to ensure color support 10-bit ..
