Re: Conversion Problems

why is the file more than double the size it would be if the original way i converted files was working?

Re: Conversion Problems

Did you set the sample/frequency to 22050Hz? If you left it at the default of 44100Hz, it would be double the size it would be the other way. Also, I believe that at low-bitrates, you should check the "Force LC AAC" if you player does not support HE AAC.

Re: Conversion Problems

The frequency does not affect the file size very much, it's not proportinal. The bitrate and the number of channels do.

Re: Conversion Problems

it's pcm 16 bit 2 channel stereo, the frequency is 22050, the size is 2905kb

So it's about 15-20 seconds?

You have to know what bitrate you're aiming for with your mp4 file. I think the lowest is 48kbps (ABR). This should result in about 100K for your file.

I don't know if it can work when strating with 22KHz or if you need the wav first converted to 44.1KHz before converting to m4a.
