Is there a reason you want to use main profile?  And why would you disable scenecut?  And what are you targeting with those vbv settings?

This guy has one thing right: --crf 1 will produce the highest quality without using lossless.

I think it would be better to throw all those setting out and start with: x264 INPUT -o OUTPUT --preset slow --tune film
Knowledgeable about: cmd.exe, ffmpeg, x264

Thank for help J_Darnley .

Yes, him choice main profile for playing stable lowend set top-box.
And no choice sceen cut because him get crapy frame by frame, no smooth when playing .

Target bitrate is 2Mbps for video+audio . I try your way but bitrate so high ~40Mbps :( .

I dont know value  "avs2yuv" "source.avs" -o - | "x264" --demuxer y4m use for about it . Can your help me know this values  .
