          In 2018, those generic libavcodec options should not be used to configure libx264.



          -flags2 +bpyramid+wpred+mixed_refs+dct8x8`


          should be replaced with



          -x264opts "b-pyramid=normal:weightb:mixed_refs:8x8dct"


          Note that all of the above are set by default so you can skip them altogether.



          Consider using presets. Manual tweaking of individual parameters hasn't been recommended for a long time now.

          • @maclin You can simplify your command even more as the presets will deal with most of it, some of your options don't apply to x264 anyway, some don't make sense, and some are default. No need to encode like it's 2006. ffmpeg -y -i input.mp4 -c:a aac -ac 2 -b:a 128k -c:v libx264 -preset medium -b:v 3000k -minrate 2400k -maxrate 4500k -bufsize 6000k -deinterlace -g 25 -r 25 -s 1280x720 -aspect 16:9 -pix_fmt yuv420p output.mp4 It could be more simplified further, but I left some of your extra options in there that aren't default or preset covered.

          In 2018, those generic libavcodec options should not be used to configure libx264.



          -flags2 +bpyramid+wpred+mixed_refs+dct8x8`


          should be replaced with



          -x264opts "b-pyramid=normal:weightb:mixed_refs:8x8dct"


          Note that all of the above are set by default so you can skip them altogether.

          • @maclin You can simplify your command even more as the presets will deal with most of it, some of your options don't apply to x264 anyway, some don't make sense, and some are default. No need to encode like it's 2006. ffmpeg -y -i input.mp4 -c:a aac -ac 2 -b:a 128k -c:v libx264 -preset medium -b:v 3000k -minrate 2400k -maxrate 4500k -bufsize 6000k -deinterlace -g 25 -r 25 -s 1280x720 -aspect 16:9 -pix_fmt yuv420p output.mp4 It could be more simplified further, but I left some of your extra options in there that aren't default or preset covered.
