Record HDR content HEVC h.265?

New to OBS. I can record my video just fine. But I'd like to record in HDR 10 bit video and also choose my audio type

I have a 14900k so intel quick sync and I am also using an elgato 4k pro video capture card.
Settings->advanced-> color format P010, color space REC 2100 (PQ) , color full range

under recording
video encoder Quicksync HEVC
my problem is the audio I want to be able to choose the audio ac3,eac3,TrueHD ect.

The only way I have figured out to control the audio encoding is to go to recording->type custom ffmpeg then choose the audio encodeing. But then I do not know what video encoding I should be choosing to use the quicksync HEVC.

second question is there a way to do audio passthrough instead of encoding the audio and just encode the video?

Thanks in advance looks to be a steep learning curve

seems like the only way to use quicksync HEVC is to use standard mode.

seems the only way to get the audio I want is with custom mode :(

In advanced output mode, there are several audio codecs available, including lossless codecs. Since you didn't mention a use case where it's required you use one of the Dolby codecs, I recommend you use one of the available codecs, especially if you're new to OBS.

some more question when recording 4k HDR content is seems jittery when played back. I have buffering enabled I changed to 24 FPS and I am recording at about 4Mbps. I have no dropped frames checked by using stats utility left it running the entire time. The encode time per frame is about 8-12ms. Is this a GPU issue? I am just using the iGPU of the 14900k. I am using a elgato 4k pro capture card

I also noticed jitter when recording 1080 content but was able to get rid of the jittery playback by encoding at 30fps and encoding of 9Mbps.

Looking to figure out if this is a hardware issue or SW issue. I could get an intel A770 fairly cheap if it would improve the jitter.
