Here’s a blind-leading-the-blind answer, hopefully you find it useful. You’re specifying libx264, but keeping .mkv as container. Is that what you want? I ran this and it seemed to work, but I also have a later version of ffmpeg, perhaps (“.mp4" specified for output): ffmpeg -y -i Twin_Peaks-_A_Limited_Event_Series_-_Disc_2_t01.mkv -c:a copy -c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 20 Twin_Peaks-_A_Limited_Event_Series_-_Disc_2_t01_RECODE.mp4 To change the output bit rate, I added "-b:v 2000k” (which does affect quality, of course): ffmpeg -y -i Twin_Peaks-_A_Limited_Event_Series_-_Disc_2_t01.mkv -c:a copy -c:v libx264 -b:v 2000k -preset slow -crf 20 Twin_Peaks-_A_Limited_Event_Series_-_Disc_2_t01_RECODE.mp4 L.
