For years, users have complained about its poor quality, bitrate variations, and annoying output artifacts.<br>We invite users to test it by using a fresh build of git master or compiling from source, and to provide feedback and samples where it misbehaves.

FFmpeg 9.0 was just branched and is due to be released soon. The encoder rewrite was too late for 9.0, but will be included as part of 9.1.<br>Metric comparisons and listening tests can be found here, and feedback can be left there too: hydrogenaudio.org/index.php/…
