The bug

When I set a max bitrate value, the video preview is still significantly larger than the specified value. An 4k60 test Video from my Phone had a bitrate of about 5100k with peaks to 8k instead of the specified 3600k I defined.

@mertalev commented on GitHub (Jun 30, 2023):

I can confirm this. The reason is because x264 and x265 ignore -maxrate unless -bufsize is also specified, so this needs to be added to the command.
