How should I use the AAC manifest endpoint?

Fetch manifest JSON to pin fixture names, sizes, hashes, and MIME expectations in automated tests.

Why does this format have a category-specific hub?

A category-specific hub keeps assumptions aligned with practical workflows and related format alternatives.

AAC Format Hub

AAC (.aac) is a modern lossy audio codec offering improved compression over MP3 at similar bit rates. Used extensively in streaming and mobile platforms, it supports various profiles and containers (ADTS, MP4). Use sample .aac files to validate decoder compatibility, stream buffering, and metadata extraction.

Implementation Notes

Use the manifest endpoint for deterministic fixture selection in CI, then validate MIME/type detection against actual parser output.

If this format appears in multiple categories, prefer category-specific hub pages to keep test assumptions aligned with real usage.
