I am sorry about the confusion of my writing.

It seems I have understood some packetization wrong. Perhaps you can help
me understand.

When I run

ffmpeg -i someaudiofile.mp3 -t 3 out.aac

I was under the impression that the output would be raw aac without using a
muxer?

How do I identify the muxer used in this case?

I basically want to mimic that command from my C++ program.


Kind regards

Jesper
