[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] lavc/libx265: flag as experimental

[Kirithika Kalirathnam]

Hi all ,

We understand your concern behind marking x265 as experimental but we
wanted to let you know that our x265 development team is actively working
on resolving multiple issues that have been brought to our notice so far
through bitbucket issue tracker(including issue #482) and are planning to
release v4.1 with all the fixes shortly. We are also continuously levelling
up our tests to catch the issues beforehand and keep up code hygiene that
we have maintained so far. Hence we request this forum to reconsider the
decision for the benefit of several x265 users.

*Thanks,*
*Kirithika*
