Frequently Asked Questions

What is OGG Vorbis format?

OGG Vorbis is a completely free, open-source lossy audio format. It offers better quality than MP3 at the same bitrate and is widely used in web applications, games, and open-source software.

What is MP2 format?

MP2 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer II) is an audio codec commonly used in radio and television broadcasting, especially in the DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting) standard. It offers higher quality than MP3 at the same bitrate but is less compression-efficient.

What quality setting should I use?

Quality 5 (default) provides excellent quality comparable to 160 kbps, similar to typical broadcast MP2. Quality 7 (~192 kbps) is recommended for higher quality archives. Quality 10 (~500 kbps) is for maximum quality.

Will I lose quality converting from MP2?

Yes, converting from one lossy format (MP2) to another (OGG) involves recompression and some quality loss. However, OGG Vorbis is efficient, so quality 5-7 can preserve most of the MP2 broadcast quality.

Is OGG better than MP3?

OGG Vorbis generally provides better quality than MP3 at the same bitrate and is completely free and open-source. However, MP3 has wider compatibility with older devices. For modern use and open-source projects, OGG is excellent.
