Convert MPEG to CAF

Total Audio MP3 Converter converts MPEG to CAF as easy as 1-2-3. The software could encode CAF file with different codecs such as PCM 8-bit, PCM 16-bit, PCM 24-bit, PCM 32-bit, IMA ADPCM (4-bit), and GSM. The converter can also combine multiple MPEG files to one CAF.

The software is also a powerful audio converter that converts any formats to common audio formats such as MKA, M4A (MPEG-4 audio), AIFF, FLAC, M4R (iPhone ringtone), CAF, MP2, M4B (MPEG-4 audiobook), WAV, MMF, etc. It could convert MTS to WMA, QCP to AU, RMVB to OGG, UMX to AAC, M4V to CAF, H.264 to AIFF, THD to AAC, H.263 to MPA, and so on.

Total Audio MP3 Converter supports batch conversion and, is full compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit editions of Vista and Windows 7.

MPEG to CAF Software is compatible with Windows 7, Vista, 2008, 2003, and 2000

What is MPEG?
The Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) was formed by the ISO to set standards for audio and video compression and transmission. Its first meeting was in May 1988 in Ottawa, Canada. As of late 2005, MPEG has grown to include approximately 350 members per meeting from various industries, universities, and research institutions. MPEG's official designation is ISO/IEC JTC1/SC29 WG11.

The MPEG standards consist of different Parts. Each part covers a certain aspect of the whole specification. The standards also specify Profiles and Levels. Profiles are intended to define a set of tools that are available, and Levels define the range of appropriate values for the properties associated with them. MPEG has standardized the following compression formats and ancillary standards:

MPEG-1: The first compression standard for audio and video. It was basically designed to allow moving pictures and sound to be encoded into the bitrate of a Compact Disc. To meet the low bit requirement, MPEG-1 downsamples the images, as well as uses picture rates of only 24-30 Hz, resulting in a moderate quality. It includes the popular Layer 3 (MP3) audio compression format.
MPEG-2: Transport, video and audio standards for broadcast-quality television. MPEG-2 standard was considerably broader in scope and of wider appeal - supporting interlacing and high definition. MPEG-2 is considered important because it has been chosen as the compression scheme for over-the-air digital television ATSC, DVB and ISDB, digital satellite TV services like Dish Network, digital cable television signals, SVCD, and DVD.
MPEG-3: Developments in standardizing scalable and multi-resolution compression which would have become MPEG-3 were ready by the time MPEG-2 was to be standardized; hence, these were incorporated into MPEG-2 and as a result there is no MPEG-3 standard. MPEG-3 is not to be confused with MP3, which is MPEG-1 Audio Layer 3.
MPEG-4: MPEG-4 uses further coding tools with additional complexity to achieve higher compression factors than MPEG-2. In addition to more efficient coding of video, MPEG-4 moves closer to computer graphics applications. In more complex profiles, the MPEG-4 decoder effectively becomes a rendering processor and the compressed bitstream describes three-dimensional shapes and surface texture. MPEG-4 also provides Intellectual Property Management and Protection (IPMP) which provides the facility to use proprietary technologies to manage and protect content like digital rights management. Several new higher-efficiency video standards (newer than MPEG-2 Video) are included (an alternative to MPEG-2 Video), notably:

MPEG-4 Part 2 (or Simple and Advanced Simple Profile) and
MPEG-4 AVC (or MPEG-4 Part 10 or H.264). MPEG-4 AVC may be used on HD DVD and Blu-ray discs, along with VC-1 and MPEG-2.

In addition, the following standards, while not sequential advances to the video encoding standard as with MPEG-1 through MPEG-4, are referred to by similar notation:

MPEG-7: A multimedia content description standard.
MPEG-21: MPEG describes this standard as a multimedia framework.

Moreover, relatively more recently than other standards above, MPEG has started following international standards; each of the standards holds multiple MPEG technologies for a way of application. For example, MPEG-A includes a number of technologies on multimedia application format.

MPEG-A: Multimedia application format.
MPEG-B: MPEG systems technologies.
MPEG-C: MPEG video technologies.
MPEG-D: MPEG audio technologies.
MPEG-E: Multimedia Middleware.

What is CAF?
Apple's Core Audio Format is a flexible, state-of-the-art file format for storing and manipulating digital audio data. It is fully supported by Core Audio APIs on Mac OS X v10.4 and later and on Mac OS X v10.3 with QuickTime 7 or later. CAF provides high performance and flexibility, and is scalable to future ultra-high resolution audio recording, editing, and playback.

Core Audio Format is designed to overcome limitations of older digital audio formats, including AIFF and WAV. Just like the QuickTime .mov container, a .caf container can contain many different audio formats, metadata tracks, and much more data. Not limited to a 4 GB file size like older digital audio formats, a single .caf file can theoretically save hundreds of years of recorded audio due to its use of 64-bit file offsets.

CAF files have several advantages over other standard audio file formats: unrestricted file size, safe and efficient recording, supports for many data formats, supports for many types of auxiliary data, and supports for data dependencies.
