Seems to be a known bug in the latest x265 build, see: https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/issues/524/2-pass-encoding-failure-with-32-15

How do I enable that in Hybrid? Does enabling it change anything for the resulting file? I mean, are there any drawbacks?


RE: 2nd pass won't start..."file size too small" - Selur - 29.11.2019

Enable 'x265->Rate Control->Rate Distortion Optimization-> Scene cut aware quantization' is how you enable it in Hybrid.
encoding might be slower but quality can be a bit better,...

x265 devs released a new build which fixes the problem.
-> will send you a link to a dev version with that x265 build for testing in a few minutes

Thanks, that worked. So for the record, it was a bug in x265, which has now been rectified.

yup, seems like it was a small bug in x265 which they fixed in:

I'm still getting the same error with ffmpeg-20200102-81172b5-win64-static.

RE: 2nd pass won't start..."file size too small" - Selur - 05.01.2020

Bug has been fixed in x265 since end of November (https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/commits/f0fe46ce379dbdf21ee255146796dbf5c4e02ac7).
Running:
ffmpeg -i "F:\TestClips&Co\files\test.avi" -c:v libx265 -b:v 4000k -x265-params pass=1 -c:a copy "E:\Output\teste.mp4"
and then
ffmpeg -i "F:\TestClips&Co\files\test.avi" -c:v libx265 -b:v 4000k -x265-params pass=2 -c:a copy "E:\Output\teste.mp4"
works fine here, so the problem is with the FFmpeg build you use.
Seems like the FFmpeg build you use is build with an old libx265 version.
