I know that this has had one mention in passing before, but...

On Hart Shafer's Audition blog, he mentions that somebody told him about an AAC/MP4 Audition codec plugin that appears to work fine. You can find it here if you scroll down the page. Personally I have no use for this at present, but I know that some people are quite interested in being able to do this, so could we perhaps have some feedback from anybody trying it, or who already has? Andrew Rose mentioned it a while back, but there was silence - feedback about encoders is always good, especially as there have been a few strange things happening with mpeg format ones in the past.

FWIW on a 98 box using CEP2, the plugin crashed CEP. Then I used Quick Time for a while to convert to WAV, but this doesn't work all the time. Thusfar the best transcoder I've used is ffmpeg, which handles a wide variety of other material as well. Kind of a "swiss army knife" general purpose transcoder that just happens to work very well.

After all has been invested in correctness, then how does it stand with truth?

I tend to use MediaCoder for transcoding...

I downloaded it, and it opened the spot I needed just fine.  As I get more spots in that come that way I will let you know but nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary.

I thought I tried in AA v2 and it didn't work at all.  I can't remember whether or not it crashed AA.  I did use this codec in the past with v1.5, with some success (for decoding only).  I also recall trying to use it to encode a file once.  It apparently worked (no errors from AA), but the resulting file, taken elsewhere, was completely unplayable.

This is all vague and anecdotal, I know.  But the fact that I've only had partial success with third party filters for AA, and the fact that these filters seems to break whenever there's a new version of AA is why I'd rather Adobe would support these not completely uncommon formats directly.  Particularly when they still support so many obscure, obsolete formats.
