Hi everyone, I'd like to announce four new releases: - libopus 1.3-rc2 - libopusenc 0.2 - opusfile 0.11 - opus-tools 0.2 Essentially, opus-tools now depends on both libopusenc for encoding and on opusfile for decoding. The main difference is that opusenc is now able to use look-ahead, which helps when encoding speech and music at low-ish bitrates. In terms of libopus, the main changes in this second release candidates are: - Fixing an issue with bandwidth detection - Enabling Ambisonics support by default - Using mapping families 2 and 3 for Ambisonics (instead of experimental families 253 and 254) - Enabling hardening by default Please give it a try as it report any problems so we can get a high-quality 1.3 release soon. As usual, you can get everything from the downloads page at https://opus-codec.org/downloads/ Cheers, Jean-Marc
