Sorry, I don't get the question. Does that sound a stupid idea? Is that 
something ffmpeg wasn't designed for?

I was mainly looking to test (video) quality in comparison die h.264. 
And should it be similar (to me), I might start think about converting 
the movies here to save space.

Really? For encoding almost 2 hourse of movie, that's going to be quite 
an amount of data...!

Thanks, so I'll need another -map 0, right?

ffmpeg -i "${TARGET}" -map 0 -c:a copy -c:v libx265 -preset slow 
-x265-params crf=24 -strict experimental "${TARGET}.mp4"
