The "save" run will encode the content of resolution WxH (1920x1080, say) and generate an analysis.dat file. This analysis information is scaled up by the factor and used by the "load" run which works on the content of resolution 2Wx2H (3840x2160, say). Using the analysis information from a low-res encode to encode high-res content will impact the quality of the encode hence we try to minimize the repercussions by incorporating various intra and inter refinement strategies.
Your CLI should be:
HD encode : --crf 17 --profile main10 --level-idc 5.1 --output-depth 10 --ctu 32 --amp --vbv-bufsize 160000 --vbv-maxrate 160000 --me star
--max-merge 5 --rc-lookahead 40 --lookahead-slices 4 --gop-lookahead 34 --ref 5 --hdr --hdr-opt --repeat-headers --no-info --no-deblock --no-sao --no-strong-intra-smoothing --high-tier --analysis-save <filename> --analysis-reuse-level 10 --scale-factor 2
UHD encode: -crf 17 --profile main10 --level-idc 5.1 --output-depth 10 --ctu 32 --amp --vbv-bufsize 160000 --vbv-maxrate 160000 --me star
--max-merge 5 --rc-lookahead 40 --lookahead-slices 4 --gop-lookahead 34 --ref 5 --hdr --hdr-opt --repeat-headers --no-info --no-deblock --no-sao --no-strong-intra-smoothing --high-tier --analysis-load <filename> --analysis-reuse-level 10 --scale-factor 2 --refine-inter 3 --refine-intra 4

Thanks!!! So it won't downscale and upscale video? Only stats? Right?
So it's better for retain quality/details or not?
