Default -hwaccel mediacodec
Change libx264 -> h264_mediacodec

https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaCodec

Tested here is a sample video https://gofile.io/d/LV1s5H (Download Raw File for Improvements)

Tested on Iphone / Android / Windows video played on all

MediaCodec is androids codec I've seen many great improvements for quality

Before we push i need ffmpeg-kit testers for the new encoding as this is a major LTS upgrade

[CanerKaraca23]

There is more recent version of FFmpeg kit but developer says it break "stuff". Don't know exactly what it is.

[CanerKaraca23]

Suggested change

	ffmpeg-kit = "6.0.LTS" # DO NOT UPDATE FFMPEG-KIT TO "v6.0.3" it breaks stuff :3
	ffmpeg-kit = "6.0-2.LTS"

@CanerKaraca23 It doesn't break anything tbh removed that old comment its just better practice to use LTS (Long Time Support)

IIRC @CanerKaraca23 already made a pull request before and updating ffmpeg-kit broke something.

I've had a few people test this new LTS build with FFMPEG stuff seems to work? Where did i break so i can test

Also arthenica/ffmpeg-kit#789

we need 6 for HW Encoding sadly so maybe we can try to resolve bugs?

[authorisation]

I think merging this for v2.1.0 while everything else gets tested first would fit nicely. I want to make sure v2.0.x doesn't have any major flaws first.

Also maybe a stripped down ffmpeg-kit custom build would be better, the current kit makes the APKs really huge.

any reason you killed --enable-android-media-codec we kinda need that :)

I didn't see anything broken, i use with latest version on my own fork.

Developer reverted changes without any comments on my old PR, so i don't know the reason.

My bad, I'm trying to get it to compile in the first place, I'll add it in a second

Also --enable-opus probably not needed as i don't think windows PC / other platforms can even play it by default so very rare use cases because they'll have to open in VLC also we should enable --enable-x265 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X265) for people who want to compress video's more with no quality loss just my opinion tho

We should build with libfdk-aac (arthenica/ffmpeg-kit#581) says we need to edit the config

libfdk-aac compiles audio faster (on android) then normal aac and is generally more stable just putting this here for future reference if we decide to add.
