Comment 8 for bug 533111

I'd like to offer some help on this.

Basically, there are two things going on:
1) ffmpeg is getting the wrong options from pacpl for handling of metadata.
2) faac is having another issue, possible related to the special characters previously mentioned.

I'd be happy to look into fixing both (I'm already well along on the ffmpeg issue). I'm going to try to apply fixes to pacpl, and will be talking to the author of that package (upstream) as well as the Ubuntu team to get a fix tested and into an update for their repositories.

I know it's been a while for you (7 months?) but please give me a few weeks and I'm hopeful I'll get this fixed.
