+Available input format
+----------------------
+WAV, RF64, CAF, RAW, upto 32bit int / 64bit float format is supported.
+Metadata in CAF info chunk can be read and copied to the resulting m4a.
+This is especially useful and works well when you pipe from ffmpeg via CAF.
+For example, you can copy tag from original "foo.flac" to "foo.m4a"
+through the following pipeline:
+
+$ ffmpeg -i foo.flac -f caf - | fdkaac -m3 - -o foo.m4a
+
+Since FDK AAC encoder is implemented based on fixed point integer,
+encoder itself handles 16bit input only.
+Therefore, when feeding non-integer input, be careful so that input doesn't
+exceed 0dBFS to avoid hard clips.
+You might also want to apply dither/noise shape beforehand when your input
+has higher resolution.
+
+Note that fdkaac doesn't automatically resample for you
+when input samplerate is not supported by AAC spec.

 Tagging Options
 ---------------
 Generic tagging options like --tag, --tag-from-file, --long-tag allows you
