Just out of curiosity: Might there be some way to make faac create the
correct format?
I assume the issue really is that faac creates the wrong format?
Or might there be some other issue somewhere (either that the
FFmpeg check is wrong, or that we should be parsing the data
into correct packets before passing it to FFmpeg)?
I guess you personally might not be able to answer, just throwing
it out there in general.
