Thanks for all this advice. Last thing, should i leave it unrestricted then or lock to either 4.0 or 4.1? I will using 2 pass abr of 7mbits (im aware thats generally considered quite high for x265 1080p?) but am not sure if some content may come out with some scenes on the extremes, needing more than 12mbits.
