a MP4's audio is E-AC3, when enable cut suppoort, then encode, Hybrid displayed error, so i have to encode with AAC, but audio settigns only have bitrate and Quality factor two options.
can i encode with variable bitrate AAC?

Not sharing the error message -> nothing I can say about it. Mp4 itself nowadays does support e-ac3 muxing, but there might be a but with the detection on passthrough,...

Sure,... you just have to either use an encoder which allows to encode to vbr with a given bit rate or which allows to encode using a quality factor.
All the aac encoders (qaac, fhg, faac, NeroAac, fdk, ffmpeg) support one of these options.

yes, i set audio passthrough, but hybrid hints error, can't support EAC3 in cut.
audio that only can be set one of bitrate or QF, and there are no variable bitrate options, in bitrate, only can be set a number, no variable bitrate.

Okay, I give up on that since you really don't want help other wise you at least would have shared the error message.

Atm. you are using ffmpeg aac encoder which only offers vbr through setting a target quality factor.
Qaac would allow to encode to vbr using cvbr (=constained variable bitrate) with a bit rate or by setting a target quality factor.
FHG (which you don't have) and FDK would allow to encode to vbr (mode) by setting a target bitrate.
FAAC and Nero AAC like ffmpeg offer vbr through setting a target quality factor.
