I searched for an answer about this, but I couldn't find any.

Why isn't TVBR available for QAAC?

It usually outputs smaller files than CVBR, from my experience, encoding the same files with MeGUI.

Thanks in advance.
tvbr is supported,...
Code:
-V, --tvbr <n>         AAC True VBR mode / quality [0-127]
it's the quality factor. Smile

Code:
ffmpeg -y -threads 8 -loglevel fatal -nostdin -i "J:\tmp\2024-04-27@20_59_25_2910\iId_1_aid_1_2024-04-27@20_59_25_2910_01.mp3" -ac 2 -ar 48000 -acodec pcm_s16le -f wav - | qaac --threading --tvbr 127 - -o "J:\tmp\2024-04-27@20_59_25_2910\iId_1_aid_1_2024-04-27@20_59_25_2910_02.aac"
is a command line created by Hybrid,...
Thanks for the quick reply. This is what I get. Is it only visual, then?
The bitrate mode is disabled and is not taken into account for quality encoding.
Amazing! Thanks for the clarification! Heart
For some reason, I don't see the qaac selection check box
a. qaac is Windows only
b. qaac requires the 'Apple Application Support', which comes with Quicktime and Itunes and due to license restrictions can't be shippend with Hybrid.
Hybrid checks a. the registry and b. whether a portable version of the Apple Application Support is present, see: https://forum.selur.net/thread-1913-post...l#pid12443 for details
