Missing tags when converting to AAC using fhgaac codec #40

Closed ghost closed 7 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

I am using LameXP Version 4.13 Final-1, Build 1852 to convert from FLAC to AAC using fhgaac v03.02.16 and no tags are transferred. If I convert to AAC with foobar2000 (using fhgaac v03.02.16) all the tags are transferred.

fhgaac does not support embedding meta tags. I'm referring to the CLI fornt-end (by tmkk) here, which is what LameXP is using. I don't think the fhgaac library provides any kind of support for meta data.

My guess would be that foobar2000 calls the fhgaac library directly and uses its own MP4 muxer to output the result as MP4 file. This way it probably is able to embed MP4-stlye meta tags into the output file.

QAAC (front-end to Apple AAC encoder) supports embedding meta tags just fine. So just use QAAC :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
