Everything about FAAC

Encoder and decoder of AAC audio codec

FAAC is a software project which includes the AAC encoder FAAC and decoder FAAD2. It supports MPEG-2 AAC as well as MPEG-4 AAC. It supports several MPEG-4 Audio object types, file formats, multichannel and gapless encoding/decoding and MP4 metadata tags. The encoder and decoder is compatible with standard-compliant audio applications using one or more of these object types and facilities. FAAC and FAAD2, being distributed in C source code form, can be compiled on various platforms and are distributed free of charge. FAAD2 is free software. As of version 2.0, FAAC was completely rewritten to remove legacy reference code and is distributed as free software under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Older versions contained code distributed under a proprietary license and supported Digital Radio Mondiale. Wikipedia →
