When I start Hybrid and check "x264->Quantization->Adaptive Quantization" there are
- disabled
- manual
- automatic
- automatic2 (= aq-mode 3, available since rev 2015.06.28.1)
as options and from the looks of it there is no code in Hybrid which changes this.

Import works fine here.

"adaptive Quantization" itself is turned on right?

Okay, I know where the issue is:
x264 --version reports: "x264 0.164.x" on Linux
on Windows it reports: "x264 0.164.3075 66a5bc1"
Hybrid interpretes the '.x' as 0 and the '.3075' properly as 3075.
-> I'll think about it.

As a temporary workaround you can change the toolsInfos Hybrid has.
If you check under "Config->Paths->Infos->Settings path" should show you the path where Hybrid saves it's settings on you system (usually ~/.hybrid).
In that folder there's a file named toolInfos.xml in which you should find an entry like:
<ToolInfo version="164" name="x264" path="./x264" additions="opencl;lavfFFMS"/>
If you close Hybrid and change the version to 3075 and then restart Hybrid, the option should be there.
