AAC (Advanced Audio Coding)

AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) is a lossy digital audio compression standard that offers higher sound quality than MP3 at the same bit rate. This means that for the same file size, an AAC file can sound clearer and more detailed than an MP3 file. It’s standardized by ISO and IEC as part of the MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 specifications. AAC is widely used for streaming, digital radio, and on devices like smartphones and tablets.


Example:

AAC is the default audio format for Apple’s iTunes and iOS devices, ensuring high-quality playback while conserving bandwidth.


Key Features:

High Efficiency: Superior sound quality at lower bitrates compared to MP3 (e.g., 128 kbps AAC ≈ 192 kbps MP3).

Multi-Channel Support: Up to 48 audio channels for surround sound.

Sampling Rates: 8 kHz to 96 kHz.

Bitrate Range: 8 kbps (low quality) to 320 kbps (high quality).

 

Common Use Cases:

Audio On Demand
Video streaming Platform

Introducing TrueComply: Scaling Video Compliance with AI Automation
Introducing TrueComply: Scaling Video Compliance with AI Automation

Video compliance has always been a critical requirement for broadcasters—and today, OTT platforms, streaming services, and enterprise video teams face the same challenge at a much larger scale.

Every video must pass compliance checks before release. And whenever regulations or platform policies change, entire video libraries need to be revalidated. Manual reviews make this slow, expensive, and error-prone, often delaying launches and increasing operational risk.

 

This webinar introduces TrueComply, an AI-powered compliance engine that automates video reviews, validations, and required compliance edits—helping teams keep content compliant continuously and at scale.

What this Webinar will Cover:

 

  1. Why Video Compliance Is Breaking at Scale
    The limitations of manual reviews, spreadsheets, and region-by-region workflows.

  2. How AI Is Transforming Compliance Operations
    Using automation to flag risks, enforce rules, and reduce dependency on human moderation without compromising accuracy.

  3. Inside TrueComply: How It Works
    A practical demo of how TrueComply centralizes compliance management, automates checks, creates detailed reports, and scales across regions and content types.

  4. Real-World Use Cases
    How video businesses can apply AI-driven compliance to real publishing workflows.
