Hi I am Rupesh from India and I have a system with Intel i3 10th gen and Asus prime H 510 me motherboard and I have some MP3 files and I want to convert to m4a using fdkaac and dbpoweramp. In the settings of dbpoweramp I am able to select fdkaac as encoder but while coming to profiles I have the following options
1) LC AAC
2) HE AAC
3) HE AAC V2
Generally I convert MP3 files to m4a at the bitrate 72 kbps vbr mode.
I have read the documentation related to above and found that he aac V2 is used for bitrates bitrates below 56 kbps and he aac is used for bitrates below 96 kbps but I can't find documentation related to lc aac.
In some websites I have found that lc aac profile produces high quality output m4a file.
Recently I have found a new term called xhe aac and I think that it is a new codec and if yes is there any encoder for it.
Kindly try to suggest which one to choose among lc aac or he aac and also which is best among using fdkaac tool directly or using ffmpeg along with lib fdkaac.
Regards,
Rupesh.
