We have OGG opus these days which is even better than OGG vorbis.
- zanny 11y agoI actually tried this last year, and found out the hard way after reencoding my mp3 collection to vbr opus at around half the bitrate (I did some light quality testing to make sure it was of similar fidelity, of course you lose some quality going lossy -> lossy) that either opus-enc or gstreamer at the time would produce choppy broken audio. And it was reproducible on all my computers. I couldn't use my opus collection at all because either the encoder was broken or the playback was broken. I need to do it again at some point, when I have 8 hours to transcode everything and try again. See if they've fixed it.
- wooger 11y agoI'd expect similarly awful results for any lossy -> lossy transcoding. Don't ever do that. If you didn't rip CDs to lossless or buy lossless, you are stuck with the format you've got.
