I'm trying to use afconvert to convert an ac3 file in to an aac file.
And I'm getting no where here is how far I've got.
What am I doing wrong, I just can't figure it out.
Here is the usage info from terminal.
If anyone can help me find the right order of commands I would be greatly thankfull.
Cheers.

{ -d | --data } data_format[@sample_rate_hz][/format_flags][#frames_per_packet] :
[-][BE|LE]{F|[U]I}{8|16|24|32|64} (PCM)
e.g. BEI16 F32@44100
or a data format appropriate to file format, as above
format_flags: hex digits, e.g. '80'
bitdepth on non-PCM formats can be specified, e.g.: alac-24
Frames per packet can be specified for some encoders, e.g.: samr#12
{ -c | --channels } number_of_channels
add/remove channels without regard to order
{ -l | --channellayout } layout_tag
layout_tag: name of a constant from CoreAudioTypes.h
(prefix "kAudioChannelLayoutTag_" may be omitted)
if specified once, applies to output file; if twice, the first
applies to the input file, the second to the output file
{ -b | --bitrate } bit_rate_bps
e.g. 128000
{ -q | --quality } codec_quality
codec_quality: 0-127
{ -r | --src-quality } src_quality
src_quality (sample rate converter quality): 0-127
{ -v | --verbose }
print progress verbosely
{ -s | --strategy } strategy
bitrate strategy for encoded file
0 for CBR, 1 for ABR, 2 for VBR
{ -t | --tag }
If encoding to CAF, store the source file's format and name in a user chunk.
If decoding from CAF, use the destination format and filename found in a user chunk.
--prime-method method
decode priming method (see AudioConverter.h)If anyone can help me find the right order of commands I would be greatly thankfull.
