Not sure if you have experience with any custom builds, but for me x265 has never set --vbv-bufsize and --vbv-maxrate when level is auto selected, its only set when level is manually specified. It will also default to high tier (if available) when level is specified & tier is not.

Whats a bit odd for TS though that it used level 5 for 2160p60, I didnt think that was valid for level 5. Did you check the encoded file as well TS? Maybe thats just an UI bug in staxrip.
