Easy noticeable banding it's often a result of non-ideal video compression, like MPEG-2, MPEG-4. Even MPEG4 with 8 bits can look much worse (even in good TVs) than a 8 bits JPEG image due compression.
And I bet even 10 bit TV with 10 bit video un-ideal compressed, will have banding due bad compression, in the same way bad 8 bit compression already have much worse banding than most JPEG 8bit images.
Then some f...ing technician, will tell me it's because it's not 12 bits, but just 10 bits. In this day I will start to punch technicians.
I put a chanel in front of a technician, in the 4K LED TV, and a image in one was as bad a VHS, and with artefacts everywhere. And the sono of a... told me : "it's because it's not 4K signal".
They never admit the system it's a crap, but always creates retard excuse that offends intelligence.

8 bit color is standard on most LCDs that aren't total garbage. It's unlikely you'd be able to perceive banding that wasn't already there when the video was recorded.
10 bit color is available on very high end panels, and must be paired with something that can output 10 bit color, because most recording isn't 10 bit.
