Re: fdk-aac encoder

Well, that's good news. If the licensing issues are less severe than FAAC, which is enabled by default today, may I presume next HB will have fdk-aac by default too? By "good" I mean an AAC encoder capable of delivering aceptable quality at 128 kbps (or maybe at 96 kbps). FAAC/FFAAC can't ...

fdk-aac encoder

People posted some time ago feature request for fdk-aac inclusion. At that time, it was rejected (couldn't find the thread :? ).

Now I see fdk-aac included in SVN. What's changed? Will we have finally a good AAC encoder on non-Mac plataforms?

Thanks!

Re: WebM support

Hey, s55, libvpx 0.9.6 is out. Improves encoder. When your patches stop producing garbage, hopefully the new version will give us better image. :D

Re: WebM support

Yes.
Something very worse. Encode anything at the same bitrate and see how incredibly bad libtehora performs compared to the "less bad" libvpx.
But you have nothing to worry about. The crappy libtheora will likely stay for a long time in HB.

Re: WebM support

libtheora is dead long ago. The 1.2 version is taking ages to complete and doesn't improve substantially the already very bad compression ratio. FMP4 from libavcodec is probably better than libtheora... :shock: libvpx is not so great, but is miles ahead libtheora. Google is putting man power into it...

I know, s55. But just knowing that a remote chance of happening might exist is better than nothing. :lol: libtheora is totally worthless.

Thank you thank you thank you :D

* It's a VP8 encoder (the only one to date is libvpx I think). WebM is the container.

You're right. But x264 and Theora in the same situation doesn't crash, despite HB showing "Calculated bitrate: 0 kbps".

I found another crash with ffmpeg (HB svn3678). Use target size and put a low value, which causes a very low bitrate (1 MB, for example, in my 1:45 min video).

Is the "(mp4 and mkv output formats only)" part necessary? Maybe forgotten since the AVI format was removed.

Hey folks, the LAME support is working great. I've been using it with MKV for some time.

I have a small request. While Handbrake 0.9.5 is in development, If possible, can LAME be updated to 3.98.4?
