Will or can the HEVC_AMF encoder support Profile 10 or 10-Bit HEVC? I've installed the full version of ffmpeg into the ffmpeg Batch converter I use but can't seem to get the two things together. I'm a little vauge on terminology but I think I'm asking the correct question. Thanks!

If you can't find it, it's very likely not supported. While AMF support HEVC encoding, its likely support the standard 8 bit, not the 10 bit profile.

It is hard to tell as AMD is quite vague on the encoder/decoder supported per model, unlike Nvidia. At least not within my 5 minute search.

Honestly, I would advice you get a second hand 1660S if you need hardware acceleration absolutely, like Plex/Jellyfin transcode. Otherwise, I will stick to CPU as that give better overall quality at the same size.

I'm not working with High Def sources anyway. It's mainly shows from the 60s-00s and older cartoons so I'm wondering if the 8-bit vs. 10-bit is really even important. I mainly just want to re-encode my library and reduce it's "footprint".

Then 10 bit doesn't offer much. It actually increase your file size.

It does but I've found how to force a HEVC 10-bit file using ffmpegBatch. I replace the program's version of ffmpeg with the full ffmpeg version & then use the libx265 encoder with Profile=10 & Pixel Format=yuv420p10le & I get a nice HEVC 10-Bit file everytime but there's one small problem, I can only process one file at a time or it pushes my CPU to 100% otherwise so I'll just need to be patient in my processing. 🙂 Thanks for your input!

It sounds like you're using CPU to encode your videos. If you use AMF, it shouldn't make you CPU work that hard.
