 With FFmpeg 4.1 up to the latest daily build of 16/1/2019 FFmpeg throws an
 error when you try to encode to a .m4v container with HEVC video codec.
 The error log tells me HEVC isn't supported for .m4v

 This is a regression issue because it did work with FFmpeg 4.0.2

 Here is the full uncut ffmpeg log:
