AAC is not AAC+

AAC = libfaac

AAC+ = winamps enc_aacplus.dll (older winamp) or enc_fhgaac.dll (later winamp)

there are now two versions of dsp_edcast – one with, one without fraunhofer aac+ support[/quote]

You are right, my bad 😳 😳 😳 😳

So, i’ve got it working with the old enc_aacplus.dll,
i didn’t know there were two versions of edcast.

What is the difference between the fraunhofer aac+ and the old enc_aacplus one?
Is this a licence issue or is there also a difference in encoding quality?[/quote]I can tell you, config for fraunhofer is far simpler 😉

But fraunhofer needs to other dll’s, plus is "linked" to msvscr90.dll – sloppy programming if you ask me, I bet it doesn’t NEED any msvcr90 features

I just checked the code around libfaac – nothing should have changed – can you tell me what parameters you are using when using AAC (not plus) … i.e. channels, sample rate, bit rate – I just noticed the controls are a bit off with AAC, I’ll fix that too (AAC should only accept quality setting, not bitrate setting, apparently)

if you can get your hands on older (not too old) winamp that has the enc_aacplus.dll, you can copy that to the folder where dsp_edcast is, and you’ll have aacplus working

or, using the dsp_edcastfh.dll (experimental)

install dsp_edcastfh – and copy enc_fhgaac.dll, nsutil.dll and libmp4v2.dll from the new winamp (the last two dll’s are in the winamp folder, not in plugins) – you MAY need Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 redistributables for this to work

easiest method is enc_aacplus.dll from older winamp (available at http://www.filehippo.com/download_winamp/ – look to the right hand side for older versions)

Didn’t wait to get home 😉

3.30 fixes my DSP stuff up

[quote author=”radio oude stijl”][quote author=”radiorio”]wonder why it doesn’t do it "locally", but only after it goes through the encoder[/quote]
Because encoding or transcoding always causes overshoots…[/quote]

indeed – but I think the answer is even simpler than that … the existing routines (that I’ve yet to redo) are not consistent – float->int conversions in some places limits the floats to -1.0 -> 1.0 prior to conversion … and other places it does not … this is now fixed and consistent throughout

[quote author=”knigget”]That would be great – perhaps an XP version (older working bass.dll) to start with and then a Win7 version once you have found a work around for the newer bass.dll?[/quote]

I’ve almost finished a modification that will allow one to set an encoder to be "DSP ONLY", i.e. record from DSP regardless of "live recording" state

Other encoders will follow "live recording" state … it’s too difficult (and pointless) to also have "SOUNDCARD ONLY" flag

In other news … there’s a stupid bug in BASS.dll that means soundcard input becomes corrupted after almost 3hrs 23mins – old edcast probably hit the same "bug" after 6hrs 46mins (I use BASS’s 32bit FLOAT samples, oddsock used BASS’s 16bit INT)… this only effects CONTINUOUS soundcard input – if you calculate it out … it’s once there’s been 2^32 bytes of data from the soundcard that it "mangles" the audio

[quote author=”knigget”]Anyway, without detracting from your work… I am looking forward to testing with the pre-emp in your new Edcast.. I stopped using BBP (cos I didn’t need the super loud sound for web streaming) and went to BAL but miss the sparkle I got with BBP.[/quote]

weird … if I use the limiter with pre-emp, locally, it sounds fine … through the stream (using AAC+) it introduces nasty crackling

oh well – that’s why it’s BETA 😉

Latest BETA seems to be fully functional re pre-emph etc

edcast v4 (or maybe it’ll be riocast v1 😉 ) will have both bass.dll based and non bass.dll based executables …
