+LAME (Lame Ain't an MP3 Encoder) MP3 encoder wrapper
+
+Requires the presence of the libmp3lame headers and library during
+configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with
+@code{--enable-libmp3lame}.
+
+@subsection Option Mapping

+The following options are supported by the libmp3lame wrapper,
+the LAME-equivalent options follow the FFmpeg ones.

+@multitable @columnfractions .2 .2
+@item FFmpeg @tab LAME
+@item b @tab b
+FFmpeg @code{b} option is expressed in bits/s, lame @code{bitrate}
+in kilobits/s.
+@item q @tab V
+Quality setting for VBR.
+@item compression_level @tab q
+Algorithm quality. Valid options are integers from 0-9.
+@item reservoir @tab N.A.
+Enable use of bit reservoir. LAME has this enabled by default.
+@item joint_stereo @tab -m j
+Enables the the encoder to use (on a frame by frame basis) either L/R
+stereo or mid/side stereo.
