The default for AAC_AT is to produce highest quality audio, which I'll keep undoubtedly in the same direction. However, the question is this:
Should the one who explicitly set `-aac_at_quality 0` (highest quality available) be moved from HIGH to MAX, HOWEVER causing the side effect of moving everyone up in the quality-speed tradeoff by one, (or we can eliminate HIGH and just replace it with MAX which has no tradeoffs AFAIK) OR add `-1`, so that only those who entered no `aac_at_quality` be moved to -1, and keeping explicit people having set `-aac_at_quality 0` at HIGH for them, although they might have meant MAX when they started using it? (i.e. no regression nor improvement for them) --- Sent: Wednesday, April 27, 2022 at 2:18 PM From: "Nicolas George" <geo...@nsup.org> To: "FFmpeg development discussions and patches" <ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org> Subject: Re: [FFmpeg-devel] Guidance needed for a semi-breaking change Timo Rothenpieler (12022-04-27): > Any existing commandline should produce the exact same output after the > change. I do not agree. Small changes in default behavior are acceptable, since the user did not specify what they want. (I would argue that changes that fix a bug and changes that are unambiguously and exclusively an improvement are acceptable.)
