    IIRC, the 1.5X change in bit rate is hard coded when going from HEVC to H264. And changing the CRF only affects the quality when using CPU transcoding. If you are using NVENC that setting won't do anything.

    What OS are you using? What driver version? Can you share your ffmpeg logs via pastebin?

    The 120Mbps setting in your client only tells it what the max allowed bit rate is. If you set the max bit rate to 6Mbps and your video is 10Mbps it will trigger a transcode and will lower the bit rate to 6Mbps.
