Does the AACEncoder support the source with resolution higher than 16bit?

[Richard_X_]

I read a comment in the sample App of audio_codec_con in the encoding section

/* we should transform 24 and 32 bits input to 16 bits one */

before calling the AACEncoder.

Does this mean the encoder cannot support higher resolutions like 24bit or 32bit? Thanks.

ACEncoder

::GetInfo(BaseCodecParams* info) hard-coded the resolution as

pAudioCodecInfo

->m_info_in.bitPerSample = 16;

Why?

IPP AAC encoder currently does not support resolutions bigger than 16 bit. We do not see additional advantages from that functionality, do you?
