[b]Audio[/b]
Audio gain control (increase/decrease audio volume)
Updated libogg (1.3.0) and libvorbis (aoTuV b6.03)
New AAC encoder (from libavcodec) (considered experimental)
(supported mixdowns: Mono/Stereo/Dolby?, 5.1 will come later)
(should be on par with faac in terms of quality, sometimes better)
FLAC encoder (16-bit, MKV container only)
Mac OS X: HE-AAC encoding support, via Core Audio
Quality-based variable bitrate encoding support
Works with: Lame MP3, Vorbis, Core Audio AAC
Only implemented in CLI and Linux GUI
AC3 encoder: Set Dolby Surround flag in stream parameters when mixdown is Dolby Surround or Pro Logic II
[b]Audio Passthru[/b]
DTS Passthru to MP4 container (in addition to MKV) (supported by e.g. VLC, MPlayer)
DTS-HD Passthru (MP4, MKV containers)
MP3 Passthru (MP4, MKV containers)
AAC Passthru (MP4, MKV containers)
(known issue: Magic Cookie not passed through from MPEG Program/Transport? streams,which will break playback in e.g. QuickTime Player)
Auto Passthru: one encoder, multiple codecs
lets you define allowed codecs (from supported passthru codecs)
lets you pick a fallback encoder if passthru is not possible
[b]Muxers[/b]
Start MKV clusters with a video keyframe whenever possible. Should improve seeking and DLNA streaming
Bug fix: Use ISO 639-2 bibliographic form for MKV language codes
Bug fix: Fix crash due to division by zero in MP4 muxer
