Converting H.265 to H.264 #309

So I started using H.265 seeing newer must be better. Well now that I see issues with CPU usage with Plex, and overall browser support for H.265 I see that I should have stuck with H.264. Since I had all the setting the way I wanted for H.265 as far as languages, subtitles, forced subtitles etc. Can I just put all the files through Transcode-Video again using h.264 as the encoder or do I need to run all the same settings to not lose anything I had already gotten in the files?

@asheimo Unfortunately you'll need to re-transcode your original files with those same settings. :(
