1. Download NeroAacEnc and put it in REACT's Encode folder. It's better than iTunes AAC encoder. 2. When you combine the FLAC_MP3-image.txt and the WV_MP4-image.txt config you can make FLAC_MP4-image.txt: !Description=FLAC image with embedded cuesheet and EAC log with MP4 track files !ImageExt=flac !CuesheetExt=flac.cue !destdir1=@musicdir@\IMAGES\$cdartist$ !destdir2=@musicdir@\MP4\$cdartist$\($year$) $album$ start @encdir@\albumart.exe "@artist@" "@album@" "@destdir1@\@basename@.jpg" @encdir@\flac.exe -5 -f --replay-gain "@source@" -o "@image@" @encdir@\Tag.exe -t "ARTIST=@artist@" -t "ALBUM=@album@" -t "YEAR=@year@" -t "GENRE=@genre@" -t "COMMENT=@comment@" -t "TOTALTRACKS=@numtracks@" -t "FREEDB=@freedbid@" -t "CRC=@crc@" -f "CUESHEET=@cuesheet@" -f "EACLOG=@eaclog@" "@image@" move "@sourcedir@\@basename@.*" "@destdir1@" set out2=$n - $~t set compilation=false if "$cdartist$"=="Various" set out2=$n - $~t ($~a) if "$cdartist$"=="Various" set compilation=true @encdir@\acdir.exe --overwrite --output "@destdir2@\%out2%.m4a" --pipe "@encdir@\neroAacEnc.exe -q 0.5 -ignorelength -if - -of $#o & @encdir@\AtomicParsley.exe $#o --writeBack --compilation %compilation% --artist $#a --album $#T --tracknum $n/$numtracks$ --title $#t --year $#r{DATE} --genre $#r{GENRE} --comment $q@comment@; ID: @freedbid@$q" "@sourcecuesheet@" del "@source@" "@eaclog@" REM cd /d "@destdir2@" REM @encdir@\aacgain.exe /a *.m4a [/size] 3. Optionally, you can download aacgain.exe (search) and uncomment the two last lines (remove the REM's), which will apply album gain normalization to the M4A files.
