Hey peeps |

I was wondering whether any of you has made any experience with the Opus |
4 |
media format yet. It’s the new wonder audio codec with superb quality |
5 |
even at very low bitrates. |
6 |
|

I converted a 200 MB podcast MP3 from 128 kbps stereo to 24 kbps mono |
8 |
with astounding results. But because I converted it via decoding to WAV |
9 |
over a pipe, it is not tagged. Opus-tools only intalls an encoder, |
10 |
decoder and info tool, but no metadata modifier. |
11 |
|
12 |
Thus my main interest right now is to find a way to tag opus files. |
13 |
Kid3, my main tagger, claims to support it, but it doesn’t show the |
14 |
.opus file I created. A friend of mine said Opus uses ogg as container, |
15 |
but renaming to .ogg only gave me an invalid format error. |
16 |
|
17 |
I have the opus gstreamer plugin installed, but Clementine doesn’t |
18 |
recognise the .opus file yet, it seems. The second concern is, of |
19 |
course, using opus. Fortunately cmus, my current primary media player, |
20 |
will support it in its upcoming version 2.6. So right now, the only way |
21 |
I can listen to opus is through mplayer. |
