New iTunes, new CoreAudioToolbox.dll

^^^ Even if it's true that there haven't been improvements to the encoder's compression efficiency for some time, isn't is still desirable to deploy updates? Maybe they're fixing security flaws, or maybe they improve the runtime of some routines?

For those of us who only extract the necessary CAT DLLs to make qaac run and don't use QuickTime or iTunes, the updates are totally useless as far as I can see.

Haven't tested yet.

Can a mod please rename the thread "New iTunes/QuickTime, CoreAudioToolbox.dll"?

Thanks.

Any word on changes/updates to the encoder, or is it still the same?

I'd be curious as well. We went from 7.9.x.x to 7.10.x.x which suggests a minor feature update (the conventional numbering scheme is major.minor.bugfix.development_build)

nu774, makeportable is only able to extract QTFiles not QTFiles64 now. Thanks.

Just tried iTunes6464Setup.exe of 12.4.2.4.
makeportable works for both 32bit and 64bit here.

Confirmed, sorry iTunes was downloaded from CodecPack.co thinking it was the official direct link but I guess Apple uses more links, this one was named only iTunes64setup.exe (one 64 not two) and makeportable didn't extract QTFiles64 even if the iTunes setup file is the same. Thanks for double checking.

When I run ver 2.59 qaac64 --check I get an error on the CoreAudioToolbox.dll that makeportable extracted from iTunes6464setup.exe 12.4.2.4... can anyone else confirm this behavior?

">qaac64 --check
ERROR: 193: CoreAudioToolbox.dll"

Sorry... never mind, it's just an issue of which Microsoft C Runtime Library was already on one machine but not on another.   :-[ Duh!

Only get CoreAudioToolbox.dll 7.10.5.0 here. Tested multiple download places for the latest iTunes and it's the same on all of them..... ???

If you want to get the correct version number for CoreAudioToolbox.dll then you have to use the "qaac --check" command.
Window only gives you the localized version number.
