There's still the header which starts with percent signs, this is a workaround to get pandoc to render that as a header but to not include it within the table of contents.

Perhaps the ffv1.md could occasionally be rendered (via the makefile) with the outputs updated on ffmpeg.org <http://ffmpeg.org/>. Then within the README of the FFV1 repo we could link to the rendered copy on ffmpeg.org <http://ffmpeg.org/>.

ive the suspicion something is smart and associates the title
with teh tables by putting them below the tables (which is not
uncommon for tables to have the associated text below them)
but this is guessing by someone who knows 0 about this stuff
so iam likely wrong
