Indigo 🏳️‍⚧️:flag_nonbinary:I wish I could just have 1 file format for everything (music) but alas.I have the following in order of quality preservation:<ol><li>flac</li><li>aac</li><li>mp3</li></ol>Should... should I wrap my flacs and aacs in ogg containers? I read online that ogg can be much better supported given that it has a "better" metadata support system. Yes to flacs in ogg? Yes to aacs in ogg?I also read that aacs in ogg should end in .opus (I'm not using vorbis but opus specifically). So... it's not like I'de have "one file format for everything" regardless unless I want to break naming convention with ".aac.ogg" xD.Also, I would probably break naming convention for the flak oggs. As I dont want to have to rely on metadata peeking to determine which of my ogg files are flac :P. (so: ".flac.ogg" it is)And yes yes, I can do w/e I want.
