Kdenlive bad AAC codec
July 24th, 2012
It seems that someone decided to change the default audio codec of Kdenlive to a broken AAC implementation, which produces awfully noisy output. Here’s one straightforward way to fix it in Ubuntu (run the following lines as root):
cd /usr/share/kde4/apps/kdenlive/export cp profiles.xml profiles.xml.save cat profiles.xml.save | sed 's/aac /libmp3lame /' >profiles.xml
Works for me! It could be possible to replace the bad AAC plugin with the previous one, apparently better, libaac. I didn’t bother to look so deeply into it, but tell me if you did. This is something they should definitely fix, since at the moment there’s no point in encoding anything in H.264.
