--strict-cbr usage
I wanted to test that (experimental) swtich but can`t get it to work with current build,
with parameters set to: --bitrate 1650 --strict-cbr or --bitrate 1650 --vbv-maxrate 5000 --vbv-bufsize 5000 --strict-cbr I get: x265 [error]: Strict-cbr cannot be applied without specifying target bitrate or vbv bufsize CLI usage wrong or not working as of now? |

./x265 -o t.hevc test.y4m --bitrate 5000 --vbv-maxrate 5000 --vbv-bufsize 5000 --strict-cbr
And no problem. You need to set bitrate == maxrate to switch to CBR mode. Then specify bufsize should allow you to use strict-cbr. Also please check your version number. Some legacy version could come with problems that might have been fixed. |

True. I've been using it too to make it as "constant" as possible for quite some time now. It works fine, just like it does for x264. |

On Windows I sometimes use CheckBitrate by Rigaya (author of NVencC app) to generate .csv which I then import into Google Sheets to create charts. It's not as convenient as a standalone program but it is what it is. There's also PlotBitrate and PlotBitrateFaster python scripts that can do the job but I prefer CheckBitrate. |

Too bad the author of Bitrate Viewer didn't update the program for Windows... |

It can be easily checked with eg. DVBInspector (assuming ts file). |
