Attention AAC

Hey everybody how are you doing.

I want to share my frustration about movie rips with AAC audio.
A good 25% of rips with AAC audio won'd demux and decode properly. The video will froze, skip frame and stutter like crazy.
It's been many years like that in MPC-HC and VLC.

Extracting the container, and reencoding audio to flac, PCM or MP3, then muxing into mkv fixes the problem. But the extracting takes good 15 minutes.

There is no problem with FLAC, PCM, AC3 and the decoding is silky smooth. I have never had problems with AC3 rips.

Just had to get it off my chest.
