Hey team - I'm back on my project to add gapless metadata support to ffmpeg. 
I've got a dev environment building and debugging ffmpeg up and running, and have been investigating movenc.c and related to try to figure out how to implement.

Just opened up a ticket here:
https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8631#ticket

I'm still working through some newbie issues, mostly trying to figure out where the relevant data is. And of course if there's anything in there that's way off I'd welcome comments to set me straight. Especially if you know details of getting at AAC encoding data you'll save me investigation time.

Thanks,
John
