AAC Audio Codec

Hey All,

I spent last night creating a module to publish video to YouTube Live, only to find out that it only supports the AAC codec for audio.  From what I can find, Flash/Flex do not currently offer this codec to the microphone.  Is this something that is dependent on Flashplayer itself?  Can we do anything about it now that Apache has code access?  Or is it even worth the effort?  Does anyone know a work around besides bouncing it off of a Wowza server (w/ audio transcoding) to YouTube?

Here's a couple of posts about it, as something developers are looking for:

Thanks,

  I assume you searched for AS3 AAC Encoder? 
https://www.google.com/search?q=AS3+ACC+Codec&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=sb

  Here is a commercial codec:

  Although it sounds like you need Flash Media Live Encoder.

  You may also try looking at "Alchemy" options to get a C library into 
your app.
