Can't convert video to HEVC - Lemenus - 28.02.2024

Hello. I cannot convert particular video to HEVC with NVENC, other videos converting fine, but not this one, though MPC and VLC have no problem playing it.
It just stops with this message:

Helper(1) finished with exitCode: -22 and exitStatus: 0

-> 2024-02-28@10_56_13_5810_02_video crashed: Helper1, exitCode: -22

Aborting '2024-02-28@10_56_13_5810_02_video' due to: Helper1, exitCode: -22

Tried to update GPU drivers and placing video in another folder/drive.

Archived log file included.

Thank you.Please, read the 'Infos needed to fix&reproduce bugs,..'-sticky before you post about a problem.

Hybrid is calling:

"C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\ffmpeg.exe" -y -loglevel fatal -noautorotate -nostdin -threads 8 -ignore_editlist true -i "D:\2023-02-2 - PT.mp4" -map 0:0 -an -sn -color_primaries bt2020 -color_trc bt2020_10 -colorspace bt2020nc -color_range tv -pix_fmt yuv420p10le -strict -1 -vsync 0 -f yuv4mpegpipe - | "C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\NVEncC.exe" --y4m -i - --fps 60.000 --codec h265 --profile main10 --level auto --tier high --sar 1:1 --lookahead 32 --output-depth 10 --multipass "2pass-full" --vbr 3600 --max-bitrate 800000 --gop-len 600 --strict-gop --ref 3 --bframes 3 --bref-mode middle --no-b-adapt --mv-precision Q-pel --cu-max 32 --cu-min 8 --preset quality --colorrange limited --colormatrix bt470bg --cuda-schedule auto --psnr --ssim --output "C:\Users\Lemenus\AppData\Local\Temp\2023-02-2 - PT_1_2024-02-28@10_56_13_5810_02.265"

and according to the log it's not NVEncC that is crashing bug the ffmpeg call.
Does calling:

"C:\Program Files\Hybrid\64bit\ffmpeg.exe" -y -noautorotate -nostdin -threads 8 -ignore_editlist true -i "D:\2023-02-2 - PT.mp4" -map 0:0 -an -sn -color_primaries bt2020 -color_trc bt2020_10 -colorspace bt2020nc -color_range tv -pix_fmt yuv420p10le -strict -1 -vsync 0 -f yuv4mpegpipe NUL

in a Windows command prompt, show any errors? (call seems to be fine, at a first glance)

Side note:
Since you don't use Avisynth or Vapoursynth, enabling "NVEnc->Hardware->Only use encode" would tell Hybrid to only use NVEnc, which might work as a workaround. (still knowing what's causing the issue with ffmpeg would be interesting)

"in a Windows command prompt, show any errors? (call seems to be fine, at a first glance)"

How can I look at it? I should launch Hybrid through cmd?

No, you open a Windows Command Prompt and then copy and paste the the content. (paste is done via right-click into the command prompt window)
