xHE-AAC audio support for desktop app

Basstard RadOo

Hello there,
after little experimenting I found something that might be interesting to some people.
I have tested a .mp4 file with H264 video and xHE-AAC audio. It plays fine on my Android 10 phone and on my iPad running iPadOS 16.6. But I can't play it on Windows 11 app, even though it should.

Here's list copied from Fraunhofer post of supported platforms:

  • PC (Windows/Mac OS X/Linux)
  • ARM (decoder only)
  • MIPS (decoder only)
  • Texas Instruments C6x, DaVinci, OMAP (decoder only)
  • ADI Sharc+ (decoder only)
  • Cadence Xtensa (decoder only)
  • Apple iOS® SDK (decoder only)
  • Apple iOS 13 (decoder only)
  • Fire OS 7 (decoder only)
  • Android™ (decoder included in Android 9 and later)
     

In my opinion, this codec helps delivering decent quality audio while using less space, which adds up real quick on big networks in my opinion. What do you think?

Example of xHE-AAC encoded file being shown in program MediaInfo:
