Problem converting FHD to HD - rescaling - using NVIDIA ENC

[JSchreck]

Hi,

I am facing problems converting videos 1920x1080 to 1280x720.

Original file: MKV container, h.265 (HEVC), DTS-HD Audio track.

I want to rescale this file to a lower resolution using the h.264 NVIDIA encoder.
I just use the DSPs:
- SCALE: 1280 x 720 (HD)
- Audio Channels: 2 (Stereo)

And it creates following error:

Error converting to MP4 (Nvidia H264), 'R:\<path>\<name>.S03.E01.In der Sackgasse.1080p.DTSHD.DE.HEVC.mkv' to 'N:\<path>\<name>.S03.E01.In der Sackgasse.1080p.DTSHD.DE.HEVC.mp4'
[h264_nvenc @ 0000000002610e40] InitializeEncoder failed: invalid param (8): Invalid Level.
Error initializing output stream 0:0 -- Error while opening encoder for output stream *0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height

What's the problem?

Try converting with no DSP effects, does that work?
