libfaac encoding with ffmpeg

[El Heggunte]

For what it's worth, "libvo_aacenc" is the library that is based on a codec implementation by VisualOn.

Anyhow, I have tried out the Zeranoe build with -acodec libvo_aacenc -ab 64k and found it to be very good. IMHO, it is far better than libfaac. I tested both out and compared them with a high quality music PCM file.

Just for the record, there are some people @ Hydrogenaudio who think "libvo_aacenc suxxx"

do you have similar command line, to encode video with libx264, audio with neroaac to produce mp4

I tried all sorts of stdout / stdin and pipes with no luck. I think you have to do it in 3 steps. First encode the audio using nero, then encode the video using libx264, then mux the audio back into the video using FFmpeg. Can all this be done in one step please?

Hi
This method seems to be OK:-

ffmpeg -i "input" -c:v libx264 -crf 23 -preset medium -an output.mp4 -f wav - | neroAacEnc -if - -q 0.5 -ignorelength -of soundtrack.aac && MP4Box output.mp4 -add soundtrack.aac
