use ffmpeg in 8 bit depth.
ffmpeg -i source.mkv -c:v libx264 -crf 20 -profile:v high -level 4.2 -vf format=yuv420p output.mkv
the resolution must be less than 1080P
ffmpeg -i source.mkv -c:v libx264 -crf 20 -profile:v high -level 4.2 -vf format=yuv420p,scale=1920:-1 output.mkv //1080p (1920width × 1080height progressive scan)
