.aac (mpeg4 audio) extension
« on: October 10, 2009, 02:02:08 PM »
Why the .aac extension is not supported while .m4a, m4b and .mp4 is.
AAC, M4A, M4B and MP4 are representing the same kind of file in the same container - am I right?

No.  .aac is a raw AAC bitstream and cannot be played in Rockbox.
