How can I encode to HEVC

[smaiderman]

Hi.
Im demuxing some movies, and using gmkvxtrac gets me a HEVC video file.

I wonder how can I encode to this format using staxrip.

My procedure to tonemap from HDR to SDR is:
Obtain the master MKV from the bluray.
Extract the video with gMKVxtract: -> .hevc file
"Encode" with StaxRip to ProRes.
Modify the color with DaVinci
Then export again to ProRes.
Then use Staxrip again to H265. But here is where I would like to have the HEVC file again, but I dont know what do I need to choose to encode to V_MPEGH/ISO/HEVC

You'll probably have to add something that can convert 422 to 420

right click on ffms2 / add / color / convert / convert to

What I can't find (or don'tunderstand) is that I cant choose V_MPEGH/ISO/HEVC when I click on x265.

Is this an option?

I know how to do the color grading from HDR to SDR in DaVinci.

What I can't find out is how to export to .HEVC file. (not .mp4, .mov, etc)

Look at my picture again and click on where the arrows point...

left = video codec
right = container

I cant find the option im looking for.
Nither V_MPEGH/ISO/HEVC codec
nor HEVC container

Maybe do I need to instal some addons?

Clearly you did not understand me. Everything you asked for is shown in the picture I posted... Just try it!!

HEVC = x265 (left)
no muxing = no container = .hevc (right)
