Thiss commit removes the experimental flag from the native AAC Encoder and thus makes it the default. After a lot of work, done by myself and Claudio Freire, the quality of this encoder rivals and surpasses libfdk_aac in some situations. The encoder had instability issues earlier which prevented it from having its experimental flag removed, however the last commits done by Claudio removed the last known source of instability and solved a lot of problems which were previously observed. The issues were caused by the various coding tools interfering with the scalefactor indices. Thus, with these problems solved, it should now be possible to declare this encoder as the default and recommend that the users should use it instead of others provided by external libraries, as it is both faster and has a subjectively higher quality with selected tracks. The encoder has still yet to be fine tuned for every possible audio file type like music or voice, so it is hoped that with the experimental flag removed the users should be able to provide feedback and make the encoder better than the alternatives for every type of audio and at every bitrate.

FFmpeg README
FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.
Libraries
libavcodecprovides implementation of a wider range of codecs.libavformatimplements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.libavutilincludes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.libavfilterprovides a mean to alter decoded Audio and Video through chain of filters.libavdeviceprovides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.libswresampleimplements audio mixing and resampling routines.libswscaleimplements color conversion and scaling routines.
Tools
- ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
- ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
- ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
- ffserver is a multimedia streaming server for live broadcasts.
- Additional small tools such as
aviocat,ismindexandqt-faststart.

Patches should be submitted to the ffmpeg-devel mailing list using
git format-patch or git send-email. Github pull requests should be
avoided because they are not part of our review process. Few developers
follow pull requests so they will likely be ignored.
