 The option @code{-codecs} of the ff* tools will display the list of
 enabled encoders.
 
+A description of some of the currently available encoders follows.
+
+@section Audio Encoders
+
+@subsection ac3 and ac3_fixed
+
+AC-3 audio encoders.
+
+These encoders implement part of ATSC A/52:2010 and ETSI TS 102 366, as well as
+the undocumented RealAudio 3 (a.k.a. dnet).
+
+The @var{ac3} encoder uses floating-point math, while the @var{ac3_fixed}
+encoder only uses fixed-point integer math. This does not mean that one is
+always faster, just that one or the other may be better suited to a
+particular system. The floating-point encoder will generally produce better
+quality audio for a given bitrate. The @var{ac3_fixed} encoder is not the
+default codec for any of the output formats, so it must be specified explicitly
+using the option @code{-acodec ac3_fixed} in order to use it.
+
+@subheading AC-3 Metadata
+
+The AC-3 metadata options are used to set parameters that describe the audio,
+but in most cases do not affect the audio encoding itself. Some of the options
+do directly affect or influence the decoding and playback of the resulting
+bitstream, while others are just for informational purposes. A few of the
+options will add bits to the output stream that could otherwise be used for
+audio data, and will thus affect the quality of the output. Those will be
+indicated accordingly with a note in the option list below.
+
+These parameters are described in detail in several publicly-available
+documents.

+Allow Per-Frame Metadata. Specifies if the encoder should check for changing
+metadata for each frame.
+@table @option

+@item -center_mixlev @var{level}
+Center Mix Level. The amount of gain the decoder should apply to the center
+channel when downmixing to stereo. This field will only be written to the
+bitstream if a center channel is present. The value is specified as a scale
+factor. There are 3 valid values:

+channel(s) when downmixing to stereo. This field will only be written to the
+bitstream if one or more surround channels are present. The value is specified
+as a scale factor.  There are 3 valid values:

+Audio Production Information is optional information describing the mixing
+environment.  Either none or both of the fields are written to the bitstream.
+
+@table @option
+
+@item -mixing_level @var{number}
+Mixing Level. Specifies peak sound pressure level (SPL) in the production
+environment when the mix was mastered. Valid values are 80 to 111, or -1 for
+unknown or not indicated. The default value is -1, but that value cannot be
+used if the Audio Production Information is written to the bitstream. Therefore,
+if the @code{room_type} option is not the default value, the @code{mixing_level}
+option must not be -1.
+
+@item -room_type @var{type}
+Room Type. Describes the equalization used during the final mixing session at
+the studio or on the dubbing stage. A large room is a dubbing stage with the
+industry standard X-curve equalization; a small room has flat equalization.
+This field will not be written to the bitstream if both the @code{mixing_level}
+option and the @code{room_type} option have the default values.

+
+@item -dialnorm @var{value}
+Dialogue Normalization. Indicates how far the average dialogue level of the
+program is below digital 100% full scale (0 dBFS). This parameter determines a
+level shift during audio reproduction that sets the average volume of the
+dialogue to a preset level. The goal is to match volume level between program
+sources. A value of -31dB will result in no volume level change, relative to
+the source volume, during audio reproduction. Valid values are whole numbers in
+the range -31 to -1, with -31 being the default.
+
+@item -dsur_mode @var{mode}
+Dolby Surround Mode. Specifies whether the stereo signal uses Dolby Surround
+(Pro Logic). This field will only be written to the bitstream if the audio
+stream is stereo. Using this option does @b{NOT} mean the encoder will actually
+apply Dolby Surround processing.

+@subsubheading Extended Bitstream Information
+The extended bitstream options are part of the Alternate Bit Stream Syntax as
+specified in Annex D of the A/52:2010 standard. It is grouped into 2 parts.
+If any one parameter in a group is specified, all values in that group will be
+written to the bitstream.  Default values are used for those that are written
+but have not been specified.  If the mixing levels are written, the decoder
+will use these values instead of the ones specified in the @code{center_mixlev}
+and @code{surround_mixlev} options if it supports the Alternate Bit Stream
+Syntax.
