Try playing the file in other players, it might be corrupt.

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

the files are 100% not corrupt. i'm trying to convert aacplus files from many different kind of source and always getting the error message. if u want, i can send you an e mail with ashort aacplus file so you can check that the file is ok.

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

If you use dMC to convert a file to aacPlus, can you convert that to WAV?

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

i'm not using anything to convrt to aacplus files because i don't need to. i only want to convert from aacplus to wav or any format that can be play on CD player.

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

I realize this. My question was to make sure that dMC was able to decode proper aacPlus files and to make sure everything is set up properly.

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

maybe you know if there is aNero plug in which allow me to use Nero as the aacplus converter?

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

I am not sure I understand your question. Nero is being used as the aacPlus converter by dMC.

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

well because dbpoweramp converter isn't doing the job. maybe i can use Nero to do the job alone. i think that Nero realese aspecial codec for that but i just can't find it.

, Winamp 5.094 and used Streamripper V 1.62.1 to record (ripp) from the station called Radio Internetowe POLSKASTACJA Muzyka Na TOPIE you can find it here >>> http://www.polskastacja.pl/ <<<

After the files are recorded they have file extension ; aac . I can replay them in Winamp no problem but...

Now I tried to convert this files to mp3 but it doesn't work, I get en error massage for example like this one;

[COLOR=DimGray]Error converting to Wave, 'R:\Trance - Polskie Radio Radiosfera & Radioredstar - Trance Vocal Trance Melody Trance Hard Trance\incomplete\Delerium ft Sarah Mclachlan - Silence (Airscape Mix) 8.aac' to 'C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Converted files from incomplete\Delerium ft Sarah Mclachlan - Silence (Airscape Mix) 8.wav'
Error decoding AAC, file is AAC? [clfaad::Create][/COLOR]

I did try what was mention here before to take a wave file convert it to m4a Nero (AAC) Encoder set at Force HE V2 (because Force He V2 is AAC+, Right?) and than to convert the Forced HE V2 File back into Wave to see if it works and it did, so this seams to work but why not on my recorded AAC+ files?

I also tried to put the AAC+ files in the Nero wave editor 2 Version 2.0.0.51 but it doesn't recognize the files. Although when I look Audio Format Settings (of the Nero Wave editor it does have Decoders; Nero Digital Audio (HE-AAC) and HE-AAC is only for AAC not for AAC+, right? so this may be there reason?!? It does not recognise mine AAC+ files because it doesn't have right decoder.

Bud going back to the dbpoweram...

.. what is the problem?! Why this error when i try do convert mine AAC+ files into wave. Would somebody try to explain it to me

And a question off topic here. With all those aac, aac+, drm staff ect. I really would like to learn programing but where to start what books to read any suggestions? I am on a newbie level so keep that in mind. Many thanks! :D

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

I am having the same issue converting .aac MPEG-2 Advanced Audio Coding Files to mp3 format. Any solution? Has anybody successfully done this conversion?

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

I just converted one of my files to a HE AAC .m4a file and then tried to convert to mp3, and it failed, so it looks like it still is not working with r13 and the r8 m4a codec.

How to duplicate it:
Convert a file to a 64kbps m4a file, forcing HE AAC v2. Then try to convert that file to any other format. The file does play in Media Player Classic, so the file is good.

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

Thanks, do you know of a product that can convert AAC to MP3? I am trying to decide whether or not to purchase dbpoweramp and the ability to do this type of conversion is an important factor in my decision.

Re: can't convert aacPlus files

Unfortunately, I do not know of such a program.
