Hi,
I am using the sample app afconvert to convert aiff to AAC. It seems
to work for large files, but when I try it on small files, the result
will not play.
Here is how I call afconvert
afconvert -f adts -v /Users/david/Desktop/small.aiff
/Users/david/Desktop/small.aac
This is it's output
Input file: small.aiff, 18297 frames
Formats:
Input file 1 ch, 22050 Hz, 'lpcm' (0x0000000E) 16-bit
big-endian signed integer
Output file 1 ch, 22050 Hz, 'aac ' (0x00000000) 0 bits/channel,
0 bytes/packet, 1024 frames/packet, 0 bytes/frame

CodecConverter 0x1286c0
Input: 1 ch, 22050 Hz, 'lpcm' (0x0000000C) 16-bit

Output: 1 ch, 22050 Hz, 'aac ' (0x00000000) 0 bits/channel, 0
bytes/packet, 1024 frames/packet, 0 bytes/frame
Input layout tag: 640001
Output layout tag: 640001
Output file: small.aac, 20480 frames
And when I try to play the file with QuickTime Player I get an error
message saying:
The movie could not be opened.
The file is not a movie file.
What am I doing wrong?
Kind regards,
Dave.
