I want to know if the iTunes AAC encoder has changed since 7.0.2.16? If so, are the changes -- overall -- for the good or bad? I don't want to upgrade if the current version of the encoder has some bad tweaks in it.
Moderation: Fixed typo in topic. ACC -> AAC. To help future searches. This post has been edited by JensRex: Nov 6 2007, 19:47 |

Well in theory, you would think that the QuickTime 7.3 version will have at least the same if not newer AAC codec compared to the one that shipped with Leopard. Else it would be a downgrade for us Leopard users

QUOTE (chrisgeleven @ Nov 5 2007, 20:40)  Is there a frontend or AppleScript available that one could use to batch encode a few files with the afconvert command? I've posted a basic AppleScript wrapper for AAC CBR here. I'm not happy with the "C" of it though. -------------------- --

Or could one modify the script so that it encodes using the new VBR? Also, I've noticed that it seems to be intended for ripping only, and not converting already ripped files... is that right? I'm currently trying to figure out how to streamline the encoding process with QT. This post has been edited by ozmosis82: Nov 16 2007, 22:57 |
