Re: AAC-HD, Flash AAC

Thanks.

re flv
What is the build target and output plugin name ?

If we got the flv plugin from Atlas and plugged it into our cayenne_150 
build, what are the chances of that working ? ie is it just a new plugin 
or were there changes to the core needed in order to support FLV ?
