It would be ideal to have the encoder optimizes visual quality. However,
the ideal of "visual" metric is subjective and the related research is
ongoing. Actually libaom has support for VMAF and other metrics but they
probably require a different config while compiling libaom. PSNR and SSIM
are two metrics that the library definitely has default support with.
