Comment (by Kamedo2): > However, you can get (I think) a similar result by specifying both -q:a and -b:a, like so: > > {{{ > ffmpeg -i somefile.flac -c:a aac -b:a 256k -q:a 1 -strict experimental somefile.aac > }}} > > Although that seldom gives you 256k. The bitrate there is like a lower bound (aim for 256k, spend more if needed). I tried it over 128 different songs and the result was: {{{-b:a 256k -q:a 1}}} - Average 247kbps - SD +/-33kbps - Min 161kbps - Max 300kbps {{{-q:a 1}}} - Average 235kbps - SD +/-30kbps - Min 154kbps - Max 287kbps (comment:160 change is not applied in this test.) -- Ticket URL: <https://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/ticket/2686#comment:175> FFmpeg <http://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker _______________________________________________ FFmpeg-trac mailing list FFmpeg-trac@avcodec.org http://avcodec.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-trac
