All this ignored, the problem is that applications can assume that they can use e.g. the Main profile when they're linked to libfaac. With your planned wrapper library this assumption would fail (and for example the faac GStreamer plugin would advertise to be able to generate Main profile while it really can't). > > Creating a wrapper library that claims to be faac but does not support > > these features sounds like a bad idea. > > Perhaps not a drop-in replacement, but an alternative implementation with a > different name? Why not just change the software you care about to use vo-aacenc? The API of faac and vo-aacenc is not that difficult.
