Comment (by cehoyos):

 Replying to [comment:2 Vika Apelsinova]:
 > Reference FLAC encoder generates Subset streams by default unless the "
 --lax" command-line option is used.

 This sounds as if FFmpeg would not create Subset streams by default: Could
 you provide a sample command line including complete, uncut console output
 if FFmpeg by default creates streams that do not conform to the subset?

 > There are hardware decoders that can't decode non-subset stream
 (especially streams with sample size in bits > 24).

 Which isn't supported by FFmpeg.
 Please name the affected hardware decoders.

 > There are also software players that can't decode non-subset stream
 (e.g. please see
 https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35348).

 This report doesn't sound very informative: Do you have a sample file that
 cannot be played by the Android player?
