AudioEncoderInfo

Electron APIs / recorder / AudioEncoderInfo

Supported audio encoder information.

Extends the base encoder information with a specific encoder type identifier. Useful for populating encoder selection menus or configuring audio output.

Example

const audioEncoder: AudioEncoderInfo = {
  codec: "aac",
  name: "FFmpeg AAC Encoder",
  type: "ffmpeg_aac",
  properties: {
    bitrate: { default: 128, description: "Bitrate" },
  },
};

name	readonly	string	A human-readable name for the encoder (e.g., shown in UI).
properties?	readonly	Record<string, EncoderProperty>	Optional map of encoder-specific configuration properties, keyed by setting name (e.g. bitrate, rate_control). Each property describes a setting that can be adjusted for this encoder. Reported for both video and audio encoders. See EncoderProperty
type	readonly	string	The identifier for the specific audio encoder type. See kKnownAudioEncodersTypes
