That is very interesting. I always thought NeroAACenc was the best widely available AAC encoder. Was I wrong? Is CT AAC cleverer and available? Or is something else I should switch to?

Speed is not an important factor for me; audio encode time is always trivial compared to video encode time.
This my statament is for multichannel encoding eg 5.1 or 7.1. CT AAC has only ABR RC but comparing to Nero in general, always give more respect to all channels than Nero. You think that Nero is best because there is test's which prove that but only for stereo and usually low bitrate eg 48-64kbps, but nobody test's multichannel encoding. IIRC Itunes(qtaac) AAC curently uses first place from lastest AAC testing (in stereo), and it has TrueVBR RC which should be better for you needs. I didn't test it comparing to CT or Nero in multichannel.
