Flagged for the wrong link.

Hopefully they see this - there's still time to edit the submission link.

It doesn't let me edit the link, but I'm confused by what even happened here... I posted this from my phone and that wrong link doesn't show up in my clipboard history.

Link should be: https://hydrogenaudio.org/index.php/topic,129691.0.html

Your options are:

* quick email to HN@ycombinator.com with a "Help Me please!! and link ( mods can edit link in and sideline (hide) these comments )

* Just live with the rotting fish head of public boo boo (we've all made mistakes, as the Dalek said whilst climbing down off the dustbin)

* I can kill the whole thing dead.

It's fixed now.

Our software follows redirs and somehow we got a 302 to our own IP. Perhaps it is someone's idea of a bot detector?

>FFmpeg's AAC DEcoder is busted with regards to stereo PNS, and the bug may be in other AAC decoders too, so we work around it in the encoder. Since no other encoder used PNS, the bug was not found until now.

I don't know what PNS is, but I bet this has been bothering someone's niche use-case for 20 years

> The encoder was mainly optimized for 48Khz audio. Get over it. It's 2026, resampling is free, 48Khz is the standard. 44.1Khz will work, and so will 96Khz but use 48Khz if you want the best quality.

Is 48kHz really the standard nowadays?

48kHz has been the recommended setting with Premiere Pro as long as I can remember.

44.1kHz, isn't that what lameMP3 uses as default?
