This will break decoding with older versions of FFmpeg/Libav.
Does this only apply to the X264 input, or does this mean that older player software or hardware won't be able to decode files created with this version any longer?

Out of curiosity I encoded a file with this latest r2969 32-bit version and tested if all my playing or transcoding software could handle it. No problem whatsoever, even under XP where I need to use some older decoders. And my Xtreamer box (latest firmware from 2011) also had no problems decoding the file.

Looks like a non-issue to me...
