ffmpeg transcoding one input video stream and multiple output video streams in the same file

I am trying to transcode a single video file with 1 video stream and several audio streams to the file having same video stream in different bitrates/sizes with correct padding at the same time.

the command I use is:

    ffmpeg -y -ss 600 -t 600 -i "INPUT.mkv" -map_chapters -1 -map 0:0 -c:v libx264 -keyint_min 48 -g 96 -bufsize 350k -b:v 350k -minrate 300k -maxrate 400k -profile:v baseline -level 3.0 -preset slow -vf "scale=iw*min(480/iw\,272/ih):ih*min(480/iw\,272/ih),pad=480:272:(480-iw)/2:(272-ih)/2" -map 0:0 -c:v libx264 -keyint_min 48 -g 96 -bufsize 650k -b:v 650k -minrate 500k -maxrate 800k -profile:v baseline -level 3.1 -preset slow -vf "scale=iw*min(640/iw\,360/ih):ih*min(640/iw\,360/ih),pad=640:360:(640-iw)/2:(360-ih)/2" -map 0:1 -c:a libfaac -b:a 32k -ar 44100 -f mpegts OUTPUT.m2ts

ffmpeg creates two video streams, however the bitrate and resolution for all of them are taken from the last video arguments - i.e. both streams are 640x360:

    Output #0, mpegts, to 'OUTPUT.m2ts':
    Stream #0:0(eng): Video: h264, yuv420p, 640x360 [SAR 559:560 DAR 559:315], q=-1--1, 650 kb/s,     Stream #0:1(eng): Video: h264, yuv420p, 640x360 [SAR 559:560 DAR 559:315], q=-1--1, 650 kb/s, 90k tbn, 23.98 tbc (default)
    Stream #0:2(rus): Audio: aac, 44100 Hz, 5.1, s16, 32 kb/s (default)
    Stream mapping:
    Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (h264 -> libx264)
    Stream #0:0 -> #0:1 (h264 -> libx264)
    Stream #0:1 -> #0:2 (aac -> libfaac)
    Press [q] to stop, [?] for help

Is it practically possible to make transcoding to several bitrates to the same file?

You are mapping your input, but not your output. Try to specify your output bitrate like this: -b:v:0 350k and -b:v:1 650k. Also the other streams and variables like codecs can be defined this way. See FFmpeg map wiki for more info and examples.

Try this command:

ffmpeg -y -ss 600 -t 600 -i "INPUT.mkv" -map_chapters -1 -map 0:0 -map 0:0  -map 0:1 -c:v:0 libx264 -keyint_min 48 -g 96 -bufsize 350k -b:v0 350k -minrate 300k -maxrate 400k -profile:v:0 baseline -level 3.0 -preset slow -vf "scale=iw*min(480/iw\,272/ih):ih*min(480/iw\,272/ih),pad=480:272:(480-iw)/2:(272-ih)/2" -c:v:1 libx264 -keyint_min 48 -g 96 -bufsize 650k -b:v1 650k -minrate 500k -maxrate 800k -profile:v:1 baseline -level 3.1 -preset slow -vf "scale=iw*min(640/iw\,360/ih):ih*min(640/iw\,360/ih),pad=640:360:(640-iw)/2:(360-ih)/2" -c:a libfaac -b:a 32k -ar 44100 -f mpegts OUTPUT.m2ts
