Question / Help what audio codecs does obs use?

[crybrant]

I am curious that what mp3/aac codec does OBS use?
i cannot find any files related to its encoder under the installed folder...

i want to know because i hope i i can make other softwares use OBS's codec.

thank you

Either mp3 or AAC, but the recommended codec to use is AAC because that's the supported audio codec for mp4 video's

thanks for your info
of course i know its mp3 and aac, but i am asking where can i find the encoder files?

i tried to download Lame mp3 acm codec 3.99.5 and there's no 96bitrate option...so i am wondering if OBS's encoder is different from the one i downloaded and want to use OBS's directly.

is here the right place to look for my info?

ah ok gotcha, I believe OBS uses ffmpeg to do all video and audio encoding. So I believe it's dynamically built into the main libx264-142.dll but I could be wrong here.

so can software like dxtory make use of libx264-142.dll and libx264-140.dll?
i dont know how to register them......
