Could someone tell me why the sound is not working on IPodf ( on PC the sound works ok ) for the following file :
Thank you!

MP4box said : Muxing failed.
Still, it outputed a file for which mediainfo says what I put below. I have no way to check if it works on apple devices yet. Do you think it will work on IPad.Iphone/Ipod this time ?
Thank you!
Correx.

Sorry, I have zero devices made by Apple.
Now I think it's possible that the AAC stream itself is somehow non-compliant or broken...
and in this case, a mere remux will be pointless
Suggested workaround: use ffmpeg to decode the audio to an uncompressed .WAV file,
re-encode this latter with fhgaacenc or qaac,
remux the original video with the re-encoded audio,
TEST.Last edited by El Heggunte; 25th Sep 2014 at 05:53.

If I remember correctly..... and I may be wrong..... but I kind of remember the maximum AAC audio bitrate is 160kbps and it must be constant bitrate. I don't own an ianything either though so maybe someone else will know.
-
@hello_hello: the maximum bitrate for AAC is 256kbps per channel.
BTW, we still don't know whether the MP4 file was created by the OP themselves, or gotten from elsewhere...
I have already seen borked MP3 streams that could be played correctly, or at all, only through MPlayer...
and now I also think that similarly-broken AAC streams can be generated by some obscure/half-assed AAC encoder(s)...Last edited by El Heggunte; 26th Sep 2014 at 09:50. Reason: clarity

Not sure what the max actually is supposed to be (it is probably different for mono vs. stereo/2ch vs. 5.1), but for stereo it is listed in Wikipedia as 529kbps. I know for a fact that, when using LameXP, I can do up to 400kbps (stereo). And it can do CBR AND VBR (and ABR and VBR-constrained).
Now, how well MacOS or iOS apps & devices accept the range of the spec, I also have no idea. Of course, it took forever before Quicktime even accepted AAC-HE (vs. AAC-LC), so go figure. I know QT7proWin can both encode & decode up to 320kbps, and it is usually the most "crippled" of the QT products, so I'm confident that pretty much every QT-based (and this includes AVFoundation-based as well) app/device should at least be able to do that.

AAH...El Heggunte beat me to it! -
I was referring to what an ipod will play, not the AAC spec itself. This is from the first ipod specs I found via Google. I don't know which iflavour of ipod the OP owns. I think the ipad is the same.
iPod touch 16GB (5th generation, Mid 2013)
Audio
AAC (8 to 320 Kbps), Protected AAC (from iTunes Store), HE-AAC, MP3 (8 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, 4, Audible Enhanced Audio, AAX, and AAX+), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV
TV and Video
H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
As I said, I've never owned an ianything but I remember the 160kbps being a constant bitrate. It seems odd VBR MP3 is specified but for AAC it's not, although AAC needing to be constant bitrate.... maybe I imagined it.
I assume only stereo (or mono) audio is supported, although the audio is stereo in this case.Last edited by hello_hello; 26th Sep 2014 at 13:00.

Hey guys,
I sent the result file to whom it requested it from me, but unfortunately I got no feedback ( yet, maybe ).
The only thing I can say is that, the original .mov file , from which I made ( using xilisoft ) the mp4 file described in my first post , played fine on mplayer and vlc, but did not play correctly in media player classic ( not even video ) and I couldn't even add it to Itunes library.
For the moment I don't need to solve this anymore, but thank a tone to all of you for you efforts!
