+ <a id="aac_encoder"></a><h3>The native FFmpeg encoder is out of
experimental!</h3>
+ <p>
+ After seven years the native FFmpeg AAC encoder has had its experimental
flag
+ removed and declared as ready for use. Subjective quality tests put the
+ encoder to be of equal or greater quality than most of the other encoders
+ available to the public.
+ </p>
+ Licensing has always been an issue with encoding AAC audio as most of the
+ encoders have had a license making FFmpeg indistributable if compiled with
+ support for them. The fact that there now exists a fully open and truly
+ free AAC encoder integrated directly within the project means a lot to
those
+ who wish to use accepted and widespread standards.
+ </p>
+ The majority of the work done to bring the encoder up to quality was
+ done by Claudio Freire and Rostislav Pehlivanov. Also thanks to
+ <a href="http://d.hatena.ne.jp/kamedo2/";>Kamedo2</a> who does comparisons
+ and tests, the original authors and all past and current contributors to
the
+ encoder. Users are suggested and encouraged to use the encoder and provide
+ feedback or breakage reports through our <a
href="https://trac.ffmpeg.org/";>bug tracker</a>.
+ </p>
