Latest build are bundled with fresh BeLight beta:
http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/874/belight4ca.png

Consist of

bse_WinampAACPlusV2 - AAC+ v2 encoder, MPEG2 AAC output (no MP4 container), no 5.1 support
bse_WinampAACPlusV2_6ch - AAC+ v2 encoder, MPEG2 AAC output (no MP4 container), 5.1 encoding only
bse_FAAC - FAAC-based AAC-LC encoding plugin, support MP4 output, now support 5.1 encoding
bse_Speex - Speex encoding plugin
bse_enhAacPlusEnc3GP - AAC+ v2 encoder based on 3GPP reference encoder from CT, MP4 output.

Future plans (frozen - I'm very busy IRL ATM):

HE-AAC 5.1 support - PRIMARY TASK
bse_WavPack - simple WavPack encoder

so my suspicion was right after all.. the reference encoder doesn't do 5.1.

Seems line enc_aacplus.dll from WinAmp 5.1 can create 5.1 HE-AAC !

get BeSweet encoding plugin here (http://sr2.mytempdir.com/155755)!
NOTE: Only for 5.1 encoding

bse_WinampAACPlusV2 - AAC+ v2 encoder, MPEG2 AAC output (no MP4 container), no 5.1 supportAnd now there's a 6ch one.. wouldn't it make sense to have just one plugin for everything? and do both winamp encoders only support cbr?

dimzon

And now there's a 6ch one.. wouldn't it make sense to have just one plugin for everything? and do both winamp encoders only support cbr?
I will merge them a little later :) and they both AFAIK support cbr only :(

really nice work !
it really great to see that besweet could still expand,
a boring question but are you planning to try some input plugin (like .dts) once your work on the AAC will be stable enought ?

keep up the good work.

Let's hope that Kurt can finalize his DTS implementation in BeLight using Tranzcode.

I'd prefer to keep the stickies basic. Once your plugins have matured a bit and any issues have been worked out, we'll add links to the respective stickies.

I am having problem with FAAC plugin. FAAC.exe and bse_FAAC.dll were added to BeSweet folder. Input AC3 file is 6 channel ATSC A/52 according to foobar. The same azid and faac parameters work with this AC3 input file when used with each program individually, but do not work in BeSweet. I am new to BeSweet, so command line may not be correct.

This is my command line:

"BeSweet/BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "input.ac3" -output "output.m4a" -logfile logfile.log ) -azid( -z1 -b1 -s surround ) -dimzon( -dllname bse_FAAC.dll -b 64 )

This is the Besweet logfile:

is this enc_aacplus.dll in your package the same as winamp's?
it's confusing since you UPX-ed it (how can i find out they are the same) ... plus you say in readme to copy the dll from winamp\plugins !?

movax

13th September 2005, 04:08

dimzon: How can you simply substitute in another DLL in the bse_ framework? Wouldn't the entrypoints/calls be vastly different? (PM me or email me if it's a long or lengthy explanation if you wish. :) )

enc_aacplus.dll in package is not the same as the one in WinAmp (size is different).

The following command line works for me:

@Iradic : grab the last BeSweet beta.

@Dimzon : a request for the future...a plugin for oggenc : Mono encoding doesn't include in BeSweet. So, it could be a good alternative.

Sorry...

just write "no support for pocket calculator operating systems" in the release notes and be done with it. It shouldn't be your problem if people want to stick with extremely oudated and inadequate operating systems..

Would someone please post a command line that works with the FAAC plugin? I still can not get it to work (see my post page 1).

@Peter1234
Same problem with Faac plugin, I tried with ac3 input like you, with wav stereo, wav 6 chan, and I get always noise.

@everybody
bse_WinampAacPlusV2_6ch and bse_WinampAacPlusV2 works for me.

Only one question related to v2 (I think not with Dimzon plugins):
In my test I used a wav stereo downmixed from a testchannel.ac3 with -azid( -s dpl ), when encode to aac v2 the audio from channels SL and SR disappears completely.
The same testchannel.ac3 downmixed with -s stereo don't have problems.

Seems like PS is incompatible with Dolby Surround Prologic?

@Dimzon : -6chnew switch for FAAC plugin is mandatory ? coz FAAC supports multichannel wav files as input w/o specifying channels order.

dimzon

15th September 2005, 18:36

@Dimzon : -6chnew switch for FAAC plugin is mandatory ? coz FAAC supports multichannel wav files as input w/o specifying channels order.
BeSweet will not send 6ch PCM to bse_*.dll from azid without this switch. So it's not FAAC-related but BeSweet related :)

18th September 2005, 15:02

I've unpacked Besweet 1.5b31, bse20050914 in the same folder. I added the dll for 6ch

When i try this command line

I just discovered by debugging BeLight that the multichannel winamp encoding works only with higher bitrates (.i.e a range between 96 and 128 kbps, with 96 kbps the lower limit). Is it intended by the WinAmp encoder himself or by you Dimzon ?

can aac and 3gp be merged in MKV?

AAC, of course (mmg even autospecifes SBR/AACPlus), 3gp not sure, can't try it now as I'm at school.

3gp is nothing but mp4 container. Just need to extract raw aac to merge it into MKV.

aac is nothing but the raw data...

Why doesn't this command line work for me:

besweet.exe -core ( -input c:\z5\adam.wav -output c:\z5\out.aac -logfilea c:\bslog.txt ) -dimzon( -dllname bse_WinampAacPlusV2.dll )

In fact, it works, but I end up with mp3 encoded file names out.aac. When I delete lame_enc.dll than I get "Error 13: Unable to get LAME interfaces"...

What to do in order to encode wav to HE aac using Winamp plugin?

No problems here either with...

-> BeSweet v1.5b31 (http://besweet.notrace.dk/BeSweetv1.5b31.zip)
-> enc_aacplus.dll taken from Winamp 5.1 Full (http://www.winamp.com/player/free.php)

... using exactly your provided command-line.

I have a strange problem here. If I use bse_WinampAacPlusV2_6ch.dll I get a 24KHz AAC instead of 48KHz. Source is surely 48KHz.

Seems like you are using non SBR-compatible decoder :)

I used the build-in decoder from MPC. With ffdshow it works, thx.

Hey Dizmon, did you try checking out the FAAC source? Perhaps buried in there somewhere has code that you could reverse-engineer to build a 5.1 AAC header/file. Just a suggestion.. good luck!

Yes i've put enc_aacplus.dll in besweet folder and it was a typo error

More it now goes for an mp3 transcoding !!!!!!

a boring question but are you planning to try some input plugin (like .dts) once your work on the AAC will be stable enought ?a nice dts decoder is really missing in besweet, now that libdts/libdca is available :)

btw technically, whats the difference between besweet calling the nero plugins and how your plugins are handled?

there are only one difference - beSweet doesn't invoke BSN_Echo in my plugins...

Can't find a belight package with your plugins in ... I found them on http://mirror05.x264.nl/dimzon/ ; are they the latest versions ?
Also can you point me to a thread explaining more what is bse_enhAacPlusEnc3GP ; how does it compare to nero and winamp aac encoders ?

Thank you :)

dimzon, any news on a dts decoder plugin for besweet? :(

its imho really missing, cause now people have to use some directshowfilters for that and its all pretty hard and messy

if there would be a dts decoder plugin available (based on opensource libdts/libdca (http://pessoal.onda.com.br/rjamorim/libdca.rar)) people could start doing more audio encodings from dts sources more easily and not use the ac3 sources as most surely do now
this will help quality surely

edit: someone wrote a small demo doing something like this already, but its not really widely useable:

Unfortunally I am very busy IRL now :(it seems you have more time now ;)

it would be really important to get nice dts decoding done in besweet! imagine the high quality audio encodes when encoding from dts and not ac3 (which normally is reencoded from dts itself)

Unfortunally I have no any dts sample for development/debugging/testing :(
Can You point me on any sowtware able to create dts or provide dts sample? And I can't download more than 10-15MB...

they seem to be inside the wav container
