I am enjoying reading this discussion and if anyone is interested would like to share the scripts I use to convert files to 720/1080 HEVC for things I dont really care about (like wife's reality tv...)
These two scripts will look for supported file types and then convert them to the following settings, I could make it more precise like OPs (look for mkv or mp4 or whatever only) but this works for me well enough.
Also this is not using FFMPEG, but a custom packaged version of handbrake-CLI with intel gpu drivers built in (for *unix distro)
I also have a script where you can input whatever you want as values (for when I want to do anything custom)
