No clue where that comes from, did you mean '--vbv-maxrate' ? (That is under 'x265->Rate Control->Video Buffer Verifier (VBV)'.)

I just found it
Config, Output, Container Settings then TS Bitrate stuffing. (illustration included)

Anyway, I found out that it does not work at all......  

Well, it says it is experimental.....hope it would work though. That is what I need.

okay, problem is that:
a. tsMuxeR is closed source and it's author left years ago.
b. I don't know of an alternative muxer to add bitrate stuffing
so there's nothing I can do if using the --strict-cbr&Co options together with the muxing option doesn't help.

If someone knows other options to archive cbr (no clue why one would want it), I'm open for suggestions.

ffmpeg provides the -muxrate options and it works fine.

If tsMuxeR does not work, maybe you can drop that and use the -muxrate option of ffmpeg better.

Busy atm. but remind be at the weekend again and I can look into it.

Looked at the code, there is already code that if the output is .m2ts and ffmpeg is used for muxing Hybrid will set the muxrate.
FFmpeg will be used for muxing.
Atm. Hybrid only uses ffmpeg for tsMuxeR in case tsMuxeR can't be used. (so removing tsMuxeR from the Hybrid folder and clearing the tool cache would force Hybrid to do that)
-> I'll think about adding an additional option to Hybrid to enforce this behavior.
