mp3 to m4a
ok, i have been looking for a ubuntu program that will convert mp3 TO m4a NOT m4a to mp3. i need this because one of my wireless devices uses m4a files. and only that. the deal is, i have heard sound converter can do this, but i downloaded it can do this but i found no m4a option in the conversions menu. i then went to ubuntu forums to ask why. as it turns out, i need sa special codec. so, i was just wondering, where the heck do i get this codec?

The codec you need is the FAAC (free advanced audio encoder) plugin for GStreamer. It's in the package gstreamer0.
sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.
After that M4A (or AAC) should appear as an option in Sound Converter.
For Fedora:
# yum install gstreamer gstreamer-ffmpeg gstreamer-
