Thanks a lot for patiently explaining how gstreamer works, it's much easier to understand now And yes, your approach sounds much better in the middle and long run.

Yes, yes, yes! Please do such fine-grain control for tuning things is a tweaker heaven, and if Pierogi's implementation could be re-used (meaning less work for you), it just sounds great.


Heh, speex evolved much since I've last checked it docs. I don't know how well auto mode work in practice (for example, if background noise doesn't cheat it to use wider frequency than necessary for main target), but if it's OK, it sounds like good default choice?

And yes, I was just to report than upon recording with speex, I got .aac with .spx extension Good that you're already aware of it.
