ffmpeg developer: "Using <extremely common use case> is invalid to prove anything." Why do I even waste my time on this?https://twitter.com/BMahol/status/1255867904475750401 …

I think that is relevant though. If you can prove within a reasonable degree of statistical significance that most listeners are able to pick the compressed sample out of a randomized lineup, but that a reference implementation performs better at the same bitrate…
Yeah, but I'm just one person :-) Really though, if the ffmpeg devs were truly asking for data (instead of being dismissive) I'd put the effort into gathering more of it, but given the responses I've had I don't think it's going to be a good use of my time.

I completely agree. For me, it’s an intellectual exercise. For you, you’ve got to decide if it’s a hill you want to go die on. I certainly wouldn’t blame you if you chose not to fight that battle.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Also, FWIW, I’ve been conditioned by over a decade of using it to intrinsically distrust ffmpeg’s built-in codec implementations for anything other than experimental or educational purposes. So maybe most users are similarly conditioned?

Unfortunately, ffmpeg AAC is still the default AAC codec for OBS on Windows... the licensing issues with libfdk_aac (the only other viable open source alternative) are a problem.
