Depending on the environment you could run it as a cron using flock here is out of my crontab runs every 6 hours but doesn't run if lock file is present.

0 */6 * * * flock -n /hd/02/media/encoding/h265ize.1080p.lock -c 'bash /home/nas/h265ize.1080p /hd/02/media/movie/1080p/' >/dev/null 2>&1

You can call the command with the fork operator & to run the process in the background and use the --logfile flag to store the output. For example, ./h265ize --logfile output.log video.mp4 &

A better solution would be to use screen or tmux.

Gonna go ahead and close this issue.
