I think the main thing was to have the feature verified by non-FFmpeg
things. Basically, if you wrote out a TrueHD file and actual 3rd party
implementations that didn't just utilize FFmpeg for reading would
happily read it, then the flag should be removed.

If the VLC commit did not specifically say "we did it like this to
enable support for files that FFmpeg generated" but rather that they
followed the spec, then that's one alternative implementation indeed.
And if MediaInfo or that Infuse thing also added support for the exact
same mapping and that neither specifically utilized FFmpeg internally,
then those also apply.

Finally, I think the D company has a git repo for "dlb_mp4base", you
could check if that supports this mapping.

Best regards,
