What is MPEG?

MPEG

MPEG video containers include audio tracks (MP2, AC3, or AAC). Extracting audio means demultiplexing—separating audio from video streams. The extracted audio maintains its original encoding quality.

  • MPEG combines video and audio streams in a container, allowing audio track extraction
  • Contains separate audio track easily extracted to AAC format
  • Video stream discarded—only audio codec and bitrate matter

What is AAC?

AAC

AAC is audio-only codec without visual components. Video requires frame sequences with visual data. AAC lacks video streams—creating video from audio requires adding visual elements like album artwork, static images, waveform visualizations, or spectrum analyzers. This requires video editing software combining audio with generated visuals, not format conversion.

  • AAC contains pure audio data requiring video track addition for video output

Why Convert MPEG to AAC?

Extract Audio Track

Isolate audio from video files for music listening, podcast distribution, or audio-only archival, reducing file size by 95% while preserving sound quality.

Storage Optimization

Optimize file storage and bandwidth usage while maintaining appropriate quality levels for your specific use case, balancing size efficiency with content requirements.

Future-Proof Format

AAC ensures long-term accessibility and compatibility as software evolves, providing reliable format support across current and future platform versions.

Simplified Sharing

AAC format simplifies file sharing via email, cloud storage, and collaboration platforms with guaranteed recipient access and consistent display across systems.

⚠️ Important: Converting MPEG to AAC changes file structure and encoding. Results depend on content complexity and format compatibility. Review converted files to ensure quality meets requirements.
