I have updated Join Together to version 2.0. This script applet will enable you to join the files of selected iTunes tracks together with Quick Time Pro and export them as a single AAC file/track. Optionally, with Apple's "ChapterTool" application installed, you can then create a "chapterized" audio file of the exported AAC file.This latest version accepts any combination of MP3 or AAC tracks for joining and export as AAC with QTPro; exports from QTPro using AAC-LC settings, rather than the "Pass Through" settings used in previous versions; makes final track bookmarkable (requires iTunes 5 or better); converts European time formats for ChapterTool compatability, i.e: 12:34,5678 to 12:34.5678; adds option to supply Composer tag; other minor improvements.As you may have read in my previous posts, iTunes 5 has trouble with files created with earlier versions of Join Together, whereby only the first of the joined files is recognized. I have been told to assume that this is a bug in iTunes 5, although this hasn't been completely confirmed. As a result, the script no longer uses the "Pass Through" Audio setting in QuickTime Pro, but enables you to select a specific bit rate. This increases the time it takes QTPro to export the final file, but it's a sure-thing that the final file will play correctly in iTunes 5.Thanks to the many Correspondents who provided excellent feedback and encouragement!
