AAC
AAC audio files for streaming testing
Test AAC playback, ADTS framing, streaming segments, and MIME detection with signature checks and local audio workflows.
Verified . The local inspector checks the ADTS sync word; frame headers are compared against real AAC inputs, while deterministic audio fixtures come from the WAV generator.
Identify AAC files
- Magic signature
FF F1 or FF F9 (ADTS sync)- Registered MIME
audio/aac
Raw AAC has no container; ADTS adds per-frame headers with a sync word, profile, and sample rate. Decoders must resync on every frame, so one valid sync word does not prove the whole stream decodes.
Choosing AAC
AAC is the compressed audio codec behind streaming, broadcasts, and M4A files, decoded by browsers and media players. The local generator does not produce AAC files, so validate AAC inputs with the file inspector and use the WAV generator for deterministic local audio signals.
Confirm the ADTS sync word instead of trusting the extension.
Test raw AAC vs ADTS framing separately.
Check profile and sample rate against the declared stream config.
Common test cases
- Streaming audio tests
- Upload and MIME validation
- Codec profile handling
Invalid and boundary cases
- Raw AAC stream with no ADTS headers
- Mid-stream profile changes
- ID3 tags prepended to ADTS frames
