AAC MPEG-4

Hello,

I know the topic have been on up be fore but is there any way to stream in AAC MPEG-4 with out using enc_aacPlus.exe encoder.
It is problem with it with both Tunein.com and Shoutcast.com

Best regards,

Joakim

We stream in AAC+ and AAC-HE both on Shoutcast an TuneIn without any problems using the enc_aacPlus.dll.
Maybe there is something wrong with your encoder settings?

the string i use is enc_aacPlus.exe - - --br 64000 --high --silent --rawpcm 44100 2 16

Tunein say ther is a problem with the acc stream and also rate it as 96kbps
Shoutcast also say it is something wrong with the stream!

Hello,

We try to encode in AAC on mairlist but we do not succeed. Can you tell me what to do next?

Thank you very much !

If I recall correctly, you must use --he instead of --high for 64kbps.

What file should be placed at the root of mairlist for it to work? And where is it downloaded? Thank you

Torben is right. You should use he for 64 kbps.

This is what we use

(directory where enc_aacPlus.ex is located) …\enc_aacPlus.exe - - --br 64000 --he --silent --rawpcm 44100 2 16
(directory where enc_aacPlus.ex is located) …\enc_aacPlus.exe - - --br 32000 --he --silent --rawpcm 44100 2 16

I found this somewhere on the internet:

--lc             : Encode as LC-AAC (default)
                      (mono:8-16, stereo: 16-320, 6ch: 160-320 kbps)
--he           : Encode as HE-AAC
                       (mono:8-64, stereo: 16-128, 6ch: 96-213 kbps)
--high        : Encode as HE-AAC+ with hight bitrates
                       (mono:8-160, stereo: 96-256, 6ch: 8-256 kbps)

So, I suppose you can use ‘high’ when your samplerate is higher than 96 kbps.

I hope you can get it to work.

I put it like this:

In encoding option: C:\Program Files (x86)\mAirList 5.3\enc_aacPlus.exe - - --br 64000 --he --silent --rawpcm 44100 2 16

And I downloaded Enc_aacPlus.exe here : https://aacpluscli.codeplex.com/releases/view/37963 which I put at the root of mairlist.

It does not work :confused:

ok thanks i have change to enc_aacPlus.exe - - --br 64000 --he --silent --rawpcm 44100 2 16

But look, i get error 471 on the Shoutcast server and there for not listed on Shoutcast.com

Don’t forget to enter the MIME type in the field that appeared next to the Format field: audio/aacp

Torben Super thanks

Now it all works and is listed at Shoutcast

Is it possible to get this to work with the integrated streaming encoder, please? What would you need to change to be able to listen to the stream?

Have you tried it? Actually the settings should be the same. Never tested it though.

Yes and no is the true answer. I set up the encoder and it seems to be streaming (i.e. no errors), but I don’t seem to be able to listen to it, however. With an mp3 stream you just enter the local ip address into VLC or winamp and away it goes, but not with this.

the encoder is bad try an other one.

Which one would you prefer?

I tried it and it works without any problem.

Sorry, I would have to disagree. It works well with shoutcast, icecast etc, and the integrated encoder is useful to stream from a remote spot to the studio. My question was designed to see if you could cut down on the data used i.e. comparing a 128kb mp3 file to say a 48kb aac+ one.

I just noted a small thing here

See my image it say 22.05 kHz but in encoder there is 44100 kHz, anyone know way?

C:\Program Files (x86)\mAirList 5.3\enc_aacPlus.exe - - --br 64000 --he --silent --rawpcm 44100 2 16 Is the current using setting
