2nd pass won't start..."file size too small"

[Selur]

I tried your calls (adjusted paths) on my system:
using

i:\Hybrid\64bit\ffmpeg.exe -y -loglevel fatal -noautorotate -nostdin -threads 8 -i "C:\Users\Selur\Desktop\Video ERROR.mp4" -map 0:0 -an -sn -vf  scale=out_range=pc -pix_fmt yuv420p10le -strict -1 -vsync 0  -f yuv4mpegpipe - | i:\Hybrid\64bit\x265.exe --preset slow --log-level 2 --input - --output-depth 10 --y4m --profile main10 --ctu 32 --no-hme --merange 26 --no-rect --max-merge 2 --tskip --no-open-gop --opt-ref-list-length-pps --bframes 5 --rc-lookahead 40 --pass 1 --slow-firstpass --bitrate 4000 --opt-qp-pps --cbqpoffs -2 --crqpoffs -2 --fast-intra --psy-rd 2.20 --psy-rdoq 1.20 --splitrd-skip --deblock=-2:-2 --selective-sao 2 --limit-sao --no-repeat-headers --range limited --colormatrix bt709 --stats "E:\Temp\result_new.stats" --output "E:\Temp\result_new.265"

for the 1st pass and

i:\Hybrid\64bit\ffmpeg.exe -y -loglevel fatal -noautorotate -nostdin -threads 8 -i "C:\Users\Selur\Desktop\Video ERROR.mp4" -map 0:0 -an -sn -vf  scale=out_range=pc -pix_fmt yuv420p10le -strict -1 -vsync 0  -f yuv4mpegpipe - | i:\Hybrid\64bit\x265.exe --preset slow --log-level 2 --input - --output-depth 10 --y4m --profile main10 --ctu 32 --no-hme --merange 26 --no-rect --max-merge 2 --tskip --no-open-gop --opt-ref-list-length-pps --bframes 5 --rc-lookahead 40 --pass 2 --bitrate 4000 --opt-qp-pps --cbqpoffs -2 --crqpoffs -2 --fast-intra --psy-rd 2.20 --psy-rdoq 1.20 --splitrd-skip --deblock=-2:-2 --selective-sao 2 --limit-sao --no-repeat-headers --range limited --colormatrix bt709 --stats "E:\Temp\result_new.stats" --no-dynamic-refine --refine-ctu-distortion 0 --output "E:\Temp\result_new.265"

for the second pass and got and error:

x265 [error]: different scenecut setting than first pass (40 vs 40)

No clue why x265 complains about the scene cut settings.

Tried this with multiple files. No clue why this error message does not appear for you.
-> since I don't see an error with the call itself I'll ask the x265 devs over at doom9s (https://forum.doom9.org/showpost.php?p=1...count=7218).
I fear this is related to the 'limit-tu: Fix bug in loading co-located CU's TU depth' fixes the dev did on '2019-11-08'.
