Here's an example of the Excellent HELP file.

Find section on ALAC command line string... under FFmpeg examples:

http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/expo ... ogram.html


Easy to find and implement.

Kudos and thanks for that.


EDIT: found it on page above:

"an exported M4A file with the standard AAC (lossy) codec" i.e. `AAC LC´.

Would like to post the final `cleaned up´ file lists, as there were errors and inconsistencies in the file names during experiments.

The file names are self explanatory.


Hope the programmers could improve the M4A Export dialog box and make in more straight forward.

Thanks,
