=Summary=
=Summary=
Some versions of the DSP firmware contain a decoder for the AAC audio codec. Such firmware may be dumped from specific games, like Pokemon X/Y or Rhythm Heaven Megamix. Interfacing with the AAC decoder (sending requests/receiving responses) happens via the DSP binary pipe (pipe 3)

=Message Format=
Below is the message format used for communicating with the AAC decoder. The same format is both when making requests and for responses, though the "request/response data" field changes appropriately.
