[FFmpeg-user] How to re-initialize an audio encoder on input attributes change.

[Dennis Mungai]

Hello there,

Is it possible to restart an audio encoder on the CLI, such as aac and
libfdk_aac when used with an input stream, say udp, whose audio stream
attributes such as channel layouts and sample rates are liable to
change over time?

A point of reference would be the -reinit_filter 1 flag which
re-initializes the filter chain should input attributes change. Is
there such an option for audio encoders? And if so, how can this be
achieved?

Warm regards,

Dennis.
