Description Val Packett 2018-01-28 22:21:18 UTC

Hi, could you please enable the OPUS option in ffmpeg by default? The Opus codec is quite popular these days (especially with VP9 video, and VPX *is* enabled by default already).

multimedia/emby-server users also want OPUS enabled, see
https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/blob/3.2.70.0/MediaBrowser.Controller/MediaEncoding/EncodingHelper.cs#L398

Not to be confused with FFmpeg's own (experimental) Opus encoder.

  and becomes increasingly popular, particularly combined with VP9 video.
  It's time to include support for libopus in the default package.
