Comment (by cehoyos):

 Replying to [ticket:7204 fantesy]:
 > At the moment the only software HEVC encoder ffmpeg uses is libx265, and
 i don't know if you want to keep it that way, but in 2016 the BBC Research
 and Development institute release their "Turing Codec" which is a HEVC
 encoder licensed under the GPL v2. Would it be possible to add integration
 to ffmpeg?
 Why do you believe this would be a good idea?
 (Your answer may be able to invalidate the reasons for not accepting the
 patch.)
