Compatibility notes
- AAC is appropriate for streaming, mobile playback, and compact delivery.
- The AVCHD source must contain a readable audio stream; a silent container cannot supply one.
- For the next step, account for quality loss when repeatedly re-encoded.
Troubleshooting

AVCHD to AAC audio FAQ
Why extract AAC from AVCHD?
An audio-only AAC copy supports efficient distribution without retaining the AVCHD picture.
Can every AVCHD file produce AAC?
Only when the AVCHD source contains a readable audio stream; video-only footage cannot produce useful AAC.
What should I check in AAC after extracting from AVCHD?
Listen through the AAC result for expected duration, channels, level, and synchronization before delivery.
