FLAC #3

Open ericdanielski opened 9 years ago

ericdanielski commented 9 years ago

It is possible to integrate FLAC?

GreenLunar commented 9 years ago

Or OGA (OGG), OPUS and SPEEX too.

dkim0419 commented 9 years ago

I will definitely try and look into that, thanks for the suggestions!

+1 Ps, speex is pbsolete, i think some codec designed for 3g or voip vould be better

GreenLunar commented 9 years ago

speex is obsolete

It is the best one for voice archiving and transmission. You get more fo very much less. Even WMA can't get so much voice information the same as SPEEX does, in same file size, that is.

i think some codec designed for 3g or voip would be better

I assume you refer to CELT or OPUS.

Also, SPEEX comes from independent and special-interest-free Xiph.Org. whereas OPUS comes from a giants such as Mozilla and its NSA-friendly sugar-daddy.

Silk from Skype and Speex from Xiph are parts of Opus. Opus is also from Xiph.

Opus is better than Ogg Vorbis, so there is no need for Ogg Vorbis. Flac is good as lossless codec.

GreenLunar commented 9 years ago

Opus is also from Xiph.

Yes, but the timing, around big WebRTC announcement, is odd. I ask myself why then, and not before, while it was SPEEX that has been used by so many VoIP clients such as Ekiga, Gajim, Jitsi, Linphone, Psi and many more for many years.

eadmaster commented 8 years ago

I vote for FLAC support too!

Opus is meant as a Speex (and other lossy codecs) replacement, so it would be nice to have as alternative to AAC.

RoestVrijStaal commented 7 years ago

Which audio codec is used now any way? MPC:HC, VLC, Audacity and MediaInfo can't open it. Very likely it's a non-FOSS codec.

fbnrst commented 7 years ago

I think, it is MPEG AAC Audio at the moment.
