Okay, thank you. I will give that a go.

-- aside --

I thought that the "-force_key_frames expr:gte(t,n_forced*2)" was placing
the key frames for segment boundaries and still allowing the encoder to
place other keyframes where they wanted?  I am trying to use h264, h265,
and vp9 so I figured the keyframes not at boundaries would need to be
different for efficiency.

How do I determine the best (or good) value for "-g" given a particular
source file and target duration for segments?
