Configure workers to skip x265 files instead of trying to re-encode them to x265?

Description

Not sure if this is an actual issue, but is there a way configure workers in a way that they will skip x265 files instead of trying to re-encode them to x265?

Steps to Reproduce

1. Start library scan
2. Wait for Unmanic to re-encode x265 files to x265
3. Complaing on Github

This is already the default behavior. Sounds like you have an issue with your library config.

Here is my library config for movies, I'm not sure what have I done incorrectly.

If you check your logs, is it actually transcoding the video? Or is it just doing all that other stuff with the audio streams?
Also, the reject if larger plugin is stupid. Just dial in your video trans code settings and get rid of that plugin from your library config.
Finally, replace the video encode nvidia plugin with the one called "transcode videos". Its better.

I doubt this config is transcoding 265 video streams into 265.

I think you might right, that it's not even transcoding, it's just doing other stuff.

I will tweak my plugins... I'll remove the re-order audio thing, as the only audio I have is English.

Do you mean this plugin?

Yes, that is the newer and better video transcoding plugin.
