Hwbot x265 benchmark has non-normalized download links.

Featured Replies

Download link on that page links to 

https://mega.nz/file/M8802J5I#PMRS0Ynen4eJP9Kv0kfsTcDnJKNLh3By_tWLJa9Nhdo

However on the rules page

https://hwbot.org/rules?referenceId=5247

if you click the version url ^ there it leads to 

http://hw-museum.cz/data/hwbot/HWBOT_X265_2.3.ZIP

The mega link will NOT properly export or save files *FOR ME*, but the hw-museum one will, however it is on an unsecured FTP site (thankfully all the file update dates are identical)

In a perfect world all benchmark links would be normalized to have the same url or at worst a mirror backup link (or 3), and hosted locally so that benchmarkers would feel confident they aren't downloading virus' or other malware from 3rd party sites.

hw-museum.cz is the homepage of the x265 bench, so all downloads there should be correct. Anything else, I can't guarantee.

Maybe we could change the DL link from the mega one to the hw-museum.cz one?
