No option for x264 10 bit - GlitterKill - 01.09.2023
After importing a Prores 422 LT file (that is 10 bit) in Hybrid I am unable find any option to allow me to encode it to x264 10 bit. The only options for x264 are 8bit and i420. How can I enable x264 10 bit encoding? I am wanting to use it to process some files since x264 encodes WAY faster and then will do the final encode in x265 10 bit.

You need to select a profile which supports the color space and sampling you want.
For example: High4:2:2 does support 4:2:2 at 10bit.

Thanks, that did it! Keep up the great work with Hybrid! I used to primarily use Staxrip, but when testing Hybrid I found that it processed most filters faster using vapoursynth when compared with Staxrip using Avisynth. I also like how you have included so many parameter to easily tweak for the filters.

Setting seem okay (preset 'veryfast'), personally I would probably use x265 instead of x264 since 10bit support usually is better for H.265.

I ended up going with Prores Standard since it renders so fast.
But I tweaked the bits per macro block setting a little and set it at 750 so the files are just a little bit smaller.

Hmmm, after some research and trying out different encode settings for my use I eventually landed on one that I can export from Adobe Media Encoder that I thought I could also reproduce in Hybrid but it appears I can't. Using Voukoder plugin for AME I am encoding x264, 10bit, 4:2:2, gop=1 (intra), crf=0, and I am able to set a vbv-maxrate of 120000. This results in files that good enough quality for what I need and fit my space needs. I am unable to set crf 0 & the vbv-maxrate options are greyed out where I am unable to use them.

try this - x265 main 422 10bit

That is x265. I am trying to do this in x264. I can do it with Voukoder just fine. There has to be a way to do it in Hybrid. I want to use x264 since it encodes much faster than x265.

I am unable to set crf 0 & the vbv-maxrate options are greyed out where I am unable to use them.crf=0 <> qp = 0 <> lossless encoding, to use lossless encoding you need to a. select a profile which supports it "x264->Base->Restriction Settings->AVC Profile" for example 'High 4:4:4' or 'None' b. you need to set encoding mode to 'constant quantizer (1-pass)' and enable 'lossless'.
vbv and crf=0 do not work together, if you use crf=0/cq=0 vbv settings will be ignored by x264.
