root@linuxhelp1:~# add-apt-repository ppa:djcj/hybrid
Hybrid is a multi platform (Linux/Mac OS X/Windows) Qt based frontend for a bunch of other tools which can convert nearly every input to x264/x265/Xvid/VP9/... + ac3/ogg/mp3/aac/flac inside an mp4/m2ts/mkv/webm/mov/avi container, a Blu-ray or an AVCHD structure.

For using the application, use the following command to know more about the options that can be used in NeroAAC.
root@linuxhelp1:~# neroaacenc -help
*************************************************************
**
*Nero AAC Encoder*
*Copyright 2009 Nero AG*
*All Rights Reserved Worldwide*
**
*Package build date: Feb 18 2010*
*Package version:1.5.4.0*
**
*See -help for a complete list of available parameters.*
**
************************************************************
Usage:
neroaacenc [options] -if < input-file> -of < output-file>
Where:
< input-file> : Path to source file to encode.
The file must be in Microsoft WAV format and contain PCM data.
Specify - to encode from stdin.
Note that multiple input files can be specified, they will be
encoded together into a single output file with chapter marks
indicating source file divisions.
< output-file> : Path to output file to encode to, in MP4 format.
==== Available options:====
Quality/bitrate control:
-q < number> : Enables " target quality" mode.
< number> is a floating-point number in 0...1 range.
-br < number> : Specifies " target bitrate" mode.
< number> is target bitrate in bits per second.
-cbr < number> : Specifies " target bitrate (streaming)" mode.
< number> is target bitrate in bits per second.
When neither of above quality/bitrate options is used,
the encoder defaults to equivalent of -q 0.5
Multipass encoding:
-2pass: Enables two-pass encoding mode.
Note that two-pass more requires a physical file as input,
rather than stdin.
-2passperiod: Overrides two-pass encoding bitrate averaging period,
< number> : in milliseconds.
: Specify zero to use least restrictive value possible (default).
Advanced features / troubleshooting:
-lc: Forces use of LC AAC profile (HE features disabled).
-he: Forces use of HE AAC profile (HEv2 features disabled).
-hev2: Forces use of HEv2 AAC profile
Note that the above switches (-lc, -he, -hev2) should not be
used optimal AAC profile is automatically determined from
quality/bitrate settings when no override is specified.
-ignorelength : Ignores length signaled by WAV headers of input file.
Useful for certain frontends using stdin.
To remove the package from the target system, run the apt-get remove command and press y to continue with the uninstallation process.

Wasn' t that an easy installation procedure? NeroAAC support the MPEG-4 AAC, HE-AAC and HE-AACv2 audio object types and sample rates.
