100 % iTunes compatible AAC

[trondis23]

I have a player that is picky about having 100 % iTunes compatible AAC files. The Nero encoder in dBpoweramp produces files that are not playable. This can be fixed in a split second with a program called Zen Compatibility. But they won't play back gaplessly. Is there a way to fix this?

Try installing the m4a utilities and running the [m4a optimize] utility codec on the files dMC produces, do those files work?

I tried this. They played 3 seconds and then skipped to the next track. So no, it didn't work.

Try the m4a codec in the beta section of this forum, does that work any better?

Sorry, same result - only 2 seconds will play from each file.
