  I could not find the official description for AOM encoding options. There are some documentations available online. However I get following contradicting explanations for aq-mode. can someone help me with the correct documentation?
  
  <https://api.encoding.com/reference/adv-av1-libaom> says the default value for aq-mode is 0 and "ffmpeg -h encoder=libaom-av1" gives default value = -1.
