-**NOTE:** These allow the GPU to be used:
-<code bash>
--hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_output_format vaapi -vaapi_device /dev/dri/renderD128

-==== Encoding formats ====
-Try replacing scale with scale_vaapi and replace -c:v h264 with -c:v:0 h264_vaapi
-The supported encoders are:
-|H.262 / MPEG-2 part 2|mpeg2_vaapi|
-|H.264 / MPEG-4 part 10 (AVC)|h264_vaapi|
-|H.265 / MPEG-H part 2 (HEVC)|hevc_vaapi|
-|MJPEG / JPEG|mjpeg_vaapi|
-|VP8|vp8_vaapi|
-|VP9|vp9_vaapi|

-<WRAP info>
-**NOTE:**  I had to set the bitrate smaller because the transcoded one was even bigger than the original file.
-  * You can change bitrate at 0.589M
-    * 0.589M is 0.589 Megabytes.
-  * Change it accordingly to your desired bitrate. I will use 2x - 3x smaller than the orginal. In this example h.264 to hevc.
