Many of these projects have a lot of code layers when it comes to transcoding. Too many layers, possibly, and definitely too few users/developers that can really tear into the details. It's not a new thing, this has been a problem for almost all media handling systems. Too many variables and a whole lot of "we don't know how/why it works, and we're not prepared to screw around with it at this time". Not saying that's a good thing, just something I've observed over the years.
