Except for AAC audio codec, everything else uses 3rd party encoders,
but decoders for ffmpeg are built-in, right ?
Why so ? Because encoders improve faster than decoders ? Or because
encoders are more buggy, so you prefer to update them more frequently
?
Just wanna know a bit of background about political and/or technical
design decision of times past.
Decoders are usually much easier to implement, need to follow minimal hardware
requirements in order to run on many platforms and so are less complex than the
encoders.
There is also libfdk_aac, which implements an external AAC encoders if this is
of interest to.
