Audio

• ✔️ 24/192 is a meme: https://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/neil-young.html
  (also flac 24 is padded to 32, so it is actually double the file size of 16)

Done on my fork.

Make a PR?

@stuxcrystal Sorry I left you out of the conversation I had with Fichte. I was pretty sure I wasn't using github correctly and Fichte let me know that my master branch was a "mess". That's why I didn't want to make a PR yet. Slowly fixing it now after uni.

If anyone wants to work on a Blender motion-tracking example with the new 2.80 update, I’ve updated the export script to work with 2.80.x.

Why anything higher than 16/48 audio is moronic: https://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/neil-young.html

Very extensive discussion of display colorimetry and artifacting: http://www.displaymate.com/ShootOut_Part_1.htm (read all 4 parts)
Maybe not a must-read, but highly interesting nonetheless.
