Generally x264 will use the same name for the same setting if it has it. About half of the list is in x264, which I have bolded for you.

But...what are you trying to accomplish? The tools might not have the same algorithms or even the same parameters and definitely will have some differences in practical effect.

x265 split --subme from x264 into --subme and --rd, for a major example.

some animes that i will convert to x265, the popular codec K-lite and the your media player adjusts the color brightness and it's not as good as the default of x264 in media player. I could keep the x265 and change the media player but the K-lite adjusts and most of the time the color adjust of x265 is better.(it's situational)

Blindly copying parameters from x265 to x264 doesn't make much sense. They are totally different encoders.

There is a thread on encoding anime, several actually.

I would suggest you go through these so you can understand what you are doing. As MeteorRain says, you can't just use the same parameters from x264 in x265. They are not the same, and do not have the same results/functions.

I did some tests here and hated x264. x265 has a much higher refinement capacity.
Thanks so much for helping me out, but I managed to make K-lite standardize the color control.(the problem was probably the player output)
