banding with 10 bit between versions 21 and 22

Hey all! I'm reaching out for some direction. I've reached out to Magix several times with no answer. I have versions 21 and 22. When editing with 10-bit in v21, I have no issues with what looks like banding. However, when I use the same project settings in v22, it appears I'm still editing with 8-bit footage. I've attached screenshots of a project to hopefully convey my issues. I'm not sure if I'm missing any settings in the deeper options. Any help is appreciated.

What is the source footage? https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/faq-how-to-post-mediainfo-and-vegas-pro-file-properties--104561/

Are you using a LUT to transform it from log to REC709? In the color grading panel or with the LUT Fx? If you have a sample of footage with this issue for download others could test it.

Here's a link to the sample footage: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kmyFxu85FSY6q5xgGik5UIZXcxccvJ-3?usp=sharing

I'm using multiple LUT's for my color grade. I've attached a video to show you my normal process.
