[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 35810] Re: transcoding of ogg to mp3 or aac for ipod nano fails

[Chris Halse Rogers]

I can confirm this, but it's an upstream bug - Banshee has never actually been able to encode to AAC/MP4 properly:
1) The gstreamer AAC encoder (faac) produces raw aac frames, which need to be muxed into an mp4 container before the iPod (or pretty much anything else) will play them.
2) The muxer (ffmux_mp4) doesn't work with the spider element used by Banshee to decode files in gst0.8.
3) The ffmpeg muxers haven't been ported to gstreamer0.10 yet.
