Making an MP4 video with audio track only

[BladePoint]

Basically what I'm trying to do is create an MP4 video file which only contains an audio track with no video track. The reason I need to do this is because I have an AAC audio file that I want to put into a Flash game, but it's not possible to embed AAC in Flash, but you CAN embed MP4 video. In other words I have to trick Flash into embedding and playing the video MP4, which really will only contain AAC audio. Can anyone recommend the best way to do this please?

How can you answer that without clarification? I'm calling a foul.

Which can be done with mp4box (yamb and mymp4boxgui are GUIs for mp4box)

And you're using a 3rd party emoticon? That's against the rules isn't it?

Hahaha, while you're distracted, I copied and pasted Mr.T to my desktop. I'm going to use it too then.

Ok thanks. Can I really do it with no video track? Or do I have to make a video track with 0 data in it? I gave mymp4box a try and when I tried to add the AAC audio track it told me to add the video track first.

Yes, you can make a MP4 file that has audio only , no video track

Whether or not your flash application requires "blank video" or "black video" is another question... LOL Maybe you do have to provide more information
