[M4IF Technotes] Looking for HE AAC test software / AAC-LC

[Ben Waggoner]

Folks,
    As part of my occasional codec shootout projects, I'm now looking at
doing some tests with HE AAC encoding.  Anyone have a HE AAC encoder and/or
decode I could play around with.  Beta, even command line, is fine with me.
    Also, for AAC-LC, any thoughts as to what is the best encoder to show
off the technology.  I've had good luck with Apple's in QuickTime 6.3 (much
better than the one from 6.0), but if there are markedly better ones out
there, I should try them as well.
