I wanted to do some tests to prove something to myself and did a CRF 20 then got the bitrate result off it and ran two pass same bitrate. The 2 pass gave crisper image and better facial details. CRF is no better or worse than 1 pass abr and a total con if it is meant to equivalent of 2 pass!
in fact I think I prefer 1 pass abr high bitrate overall using slower settings film preset. Using other h264 gui's got similar results using many pristine sources. The people who praise CRF are deluding themselves. Tx264 nice software still. Thanks.

I like this far better than TenCoder which is made by same talented person. Unfortunately for me TenCoder keeps crashing on 2 pass either Xvid or H264, so I went back to TX264 which works flawlessly. If I ever upgrade wonder if it will work in Win11, as TX is portable? Anyway thanks.

Fantastic program!!!! My personal fav among all i've tried. Would give full marks but i have yet to find an option to encode ALL audio Streams in a single video at one time. it seems to only encode one audio track per video... HUGE problem IMO. Only complaint
