No, and maybe that's the problem. 1.2 just happens to be the point at which the increased quantization floor starts zeroing out all components. Until that, RD optimization brings down the quantization floor to maintain acceptable quality, so you don't notice the floor rising (and it fact it doesn't for fully tonal bands, that's what RD optimization is about, whereas it does rise for noisy ones). So, in essence, up to cutoff * 1.2, tonal components are retained at the expense of HF noise, which seems like a sensible tradeoff. What must be happening, is that, on some signals, the zeroing point happens above 1.2, significantly above. So it's perhaps wise to hardcode that 1.2 value, and force a zero on those bands instead. -- Ticket URL: <https://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/ticket/2686#comment:95> FFmpeg <http://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker _______________________________________________ FFmpeg-trac mailing list FFmpeg-trac@avcodec.org http://avcodec.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-trac
