Before we can publisize NUT, nutmerge need to be complete, or at least compliant by rejecting any unknown codec/format.
What exactly is the point of nutmerge? If I use lavf and lavc framers, then it's just get a slightly lightweight ffmpeg and nothing more. The alternative, doing it all from scratch was fun for a bit, but now it's just NIH. So, what should be done with it?
either reject unknown codecs (and optionally add support for a few more common ones), or use libavformat for input and just use the libnut muxer for output. imo it's very useful to have a program that uses libnut for muxing so that multiple independent implementations can be used and tested against one another, but reimplementing every single demuxer/framer isn't very useful.
You can do this without nutmerge by adding several nut muxers in lavf ... - ods15
