Frequently Asked Questions
Does converting FLAC to OGG lose quality?
Yes. OGG Vorbis is a lossy format. Converting from lossless FLAC discards some audio data. Starting from a lossless source gives you the best possible OGG quality.
Is OGG better than MP3 for quality?
OGG Vorbis generally delivers slightly better audio quality than MP3 at equivalent bitrates, especially at lower bitrates. The difference is subtle at high bitrates.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. All conversion happens in your browser. Your files never leave your device.
Should I keep FLAC files after converting to OGG?
Yes. Keep your FLAC lossless masters for future editing or re-encoding. OGG files are for distribution and playback.
What devices support OGG?
OGG is supported by modern browsers, Android devices, Linux systems, and many desktop media players. It has limited support on Apple devices.
Can I convert multiple files at once?
