Yes, but how do you use those settings? In what software?

Re: Help with x264 enccoding for Bl-ray authoring
I have a DMG dile, x264Encoder. In it are:
CoreVF.dmg
sources.dmg
x264Encoder.component (but I'm sure this no longer works with quicktime?)

I have no idea how you import video files to encode.
Re: Help with x264 enccoding for Bl-ray authoring
x264 is a command-line application. You can install it via e.g. Homebrew https://brew.sh

I did try that, however I could only do basic encoides and could not figure out how to add commands regarding film grain etc. Terminal would not accept them.

.DMG is a Mac disk image file, or an installion file.

Re: Help with x264 enccoding for Bl-ray authoring
This is all you need:
x264 --bitrate XXXXX --preset veryslow --tune film --bluray-compat --vbv-maxrate 40000 --vbv-bufsize 30000 --level 4.1 --keyint 24 --open-gop --slices 4 --colorprim "bt709" --transfer "bt709" --colormatrix "bt709" --sar 1:1 --pass 2 -o out.264 input.file
You can change the tune to grain if you need to.

I've tried those setting but Terminal doesn't seem to recognise them.
