NAME

aacplusenc - AAC+ encoder

SYNOPSIS

aacplusenc inputfile.wav outputfile.aac bitrate

DESCRIPTION

aacplusenc is an HE-AACv2 encoder.

It accepts as input a WAV file and outputs an AAC file, with RAW ADTS header.

OPTIONS

inputfile.wav

The file to encode

outputfile.aac

The desired filename of the encoded file

bitrate

The encoding bitrate, in kbps

both inputfile and outputfile can be "-" to specify stdin and stdout respectively

NOTES

On 64 bit platform there are issues with Parametric Stereo (PS) an algorithm to give better quality on stereo tracks.

As PS is enabled for bitrates lower than 45 kbps, a 64 bit build of aacplusenc can only encode mono tracks or stereo tracks encoded with bitrates of 45 kbps and over
