About MPEG-4 AAC

Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) is at the core of the MPEG-4 AAC standard, which incorporates MPEG-2 AAC, forming the basis of the MPEG-4 audio compression technology. The file format and extension used depend on the application used to encode the AAC file. This unit plays back AAC files encoded by

iTunes® bearing the extension ‘.m4a’. DRM- protected files will not play, and files encoded

with some versions of iTunes® may not play, or filenames may display incorrectly.
