MP3 output

I would need to encode my audio in the video recording as an MP3 track with some specific settings. With ffmpeg I would be able to set these but I can't find mp3 as an audio option as the ffmpeg library seems to be compiled without mp3 support.

Is it already possible somehow to use an own ffmpeg library or how could I compile OBS with a customized ffmpeg version including MP3 support?

The ffmpeg version that comes with OBS Studio 19.0.2 does support mp3 on windows.
For Linux you would need to compile and install your own version if it doesn't support it.

The issue is that you can't select the mp3 codec with most containers currently.
The "Show all codecs (even if possible incompatible" option is apparently only affecting the vidoe codec currently.
