Hmm, I'm not sure/don't think that SoundConverter can convert in AAC...kei84 wrote:You can use Soundconverter. It's in the repository.
My understanding is that aac is a lossy codec? like mp3... you will loose audio quality by converting between lossy formats if you were converting from say wav, wma or flac you would probably have more luck as most decent applications wont do what you want as it's not really a good thing to doPATRIOT7ME wrote:Can someone please give me a real damn answer.
You are mistaken Sound Converter is perfectly capable of doing thislinuxviolin wrote:Hmm, I'm not sure/don't think that SoundConverter can convert in AAC...kei84 wrote:You can use Soundconverter. It's in the repository.
Yes you're right, now SoundConverter can convert to AAC, .m4a only, but if you use one the last versions. e.g. Debian, even in Sid, has only 1.3.1, so no AAC support! I guess AAC encoding support has been added with the version 1.3.2 (http://developer.berlios.de/project/sho ... e_id=14985)...Carl wrote:You are mistaken Sound Converter is perfectly capable of doing thislinuxviolin wrote:Hmm, I'm not sure/don't think that SoundConverter can convert in AAC...kei84 wrote:You can use Soundconverter.
