can we get rid of these sections too:
http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/video-codecs.html
seems like a duplicate of encoding-guide.
also 7.2. Audio codecs is very similar to above sections.

why were they added in the first place?
was it to create a list of supported formats?

section 7.2.5. AAC codec:
is the gcc 3.2 stuff still relevant? what distro/os has problems?

"If you use gcc 3.2 which fails to compile our internal FAAD or want to
use the external library for some other reason, download the library
from the download page and pass --enable-faad-external to ./configure.
You do not need all of faad2 to decode AAC files, libfaad is enough.
Build it like this:"
