V3 > Encoding

List encoding constraints.

List major encoding constraints that should be respected in order to guarantee correct output encoding in most cases.

Still, following these rules may lead to incorrect encodings. For example, trying to encode something into a flv container will fail if the audio sampling rate is not 44100, 22050 or 11025 Hz.
