MPEG-4 ALS codec...

Someone knows if there is a free MPEG4 ALS (http://www.nue.tu-berlin.de/forschung/projekte/lossless/mpeg4als.html) codec floating around somewhere ???

LPAC (http://www.nue.tu-berlin.de/wer/liebchen/lpac.html) is the predecessor of MPEG-4 ALS...

Originally wrote by Tilman Liebchen
An improved version of the LPAC algorithm was recently chosen as reference model for "MPEG-4 Audio Lossless Coding (ALS)", so I decided to freeze the development of LPAC at its current state. Once standardization is completed, I will supply tools to convert LPAC files into MPEG-4 ALS files (which will not require any reencoding). Another good news is that the MPEG-4 ALS format specification as well as reference encoder and decoder software will be publicly available, providing an opportunity for everyone to use this new standard.

Thanks... :)

What containers can you use to put the 'lossless' audio stream in?
