OK, I didn't check that.
I installed faac 1.23 beacause it was the last RPM available for RedHat 9.
Anyway, I downloaded faac 1.24, compiled and installed it, and it seems to
be working almost perfectly...
In fact when I execute this command line :
ecasound -C -b:2048 -f:16,2,44100 -i: lost_eden.mp3 -o:lost_eden.aac

- [ Session created ] ------------------------------------------------------
- [ Chainsetup created (cmdline) ] -----------------------------------------
(eca-chainsetup-parser) Setting buffersize to (samples) 2048.

(eca-chainsetup) 'nonrt' buffering mode selected.
(eca-chainsetup) Audio object "ASURA-lost_eden.mp3", mode "read".
(audio-io) Format: s16_le, channels 2, srate 44100, interleaved.
(eca-chainsetup) Audio object "ASURA-lost_eden.aac", mode "write".
(audio-io) Format: s16_be, channels 2, srate 44100, interleaved.

(eca-controller) Connected chainsetup: "command-line-setup".
- [ Controller/Starting batch processing ] ---------------------------------
- [ Engine init - Driver start ] -------------------------------------------
- [ Controller/Batch processing finished ] ---------------------------------
(eca-controller) Disconnecting chainsetup: "command-line-setup".
And the program stops there. The file size doesn't change anymore, the
compression is OK (I checked and listened to the file).
I have to press "CTRL + C" to come back to command line... (ecasound and
faac stay in memory when I check with "ps -aux")
I tried with another file format and it works ... at the end, I get this
message :
- [ Chainsetup disconnected ] ----------------------------------------------
And I go back to the regular prompt.
Any idea ?
P.S.
I've checked on audiocoding.com forum, maybe it has something to do with
this problem :

It seems that the command-line interfaace has changed between faac-1.23
and 1.24. In other words, you'll need to update faac to 1.24 or newer...
or edit your ~/.ecasound/ecasoundrc to contain:
ext-cmd-aac-output = faac -P -R %s -B %b -C %c - %f
I've not tested this, but based on 1.23 command-line help, it should work.
