An example can be found in this repository as instructed to download above. The wrapper ffmpeg-transcode will replace the plex parameters according to the configuration file ffmpeg-transcode.yaml.

(by default h264_v4l2m2m) Also it increases the buffer size (double of default) and allows to change the segment duration of the chunks that are being rendered. This will replace the output video encoder with the one defined in the configuration.
