1828	Use aoTuV encoder for Libvorbis-1.1.2	dnicholson@…	dnicholson@…	"The aoTuV Ogg Vorbis encoder from http://www.geocities.jp/aoyoume/aotuv/ has been shown to be superior to the encoder contained in Libvorbis.  In fact the current encoder in Libvorbis is aoTuV-beta2.  aoTuV-beta4.51 has been available since 2005-11-17.  It's unclear if the Libvorbis developers will include this newer encoder in their upcoming releaeses.

A listening test supporting the aoTuV encoder can be found [http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?s=17368c8dd6a45c7c918af033a51d1a23&showtopic=36465 here].  That test was against aoTuV-beta4.

Rainer Wirtz has provided a patch to add support for aoTuV-beta4.51 to Libvorbis-1.12.  For now, this bug is a placeholder.  I'll be adding a wiki page with the patch and instructions.  If it becomes clear that the developer is still pursuing this encoder, I'll consider adding the patch to the book."	defect	closed	low		BOOK	SVN	low	fixed
