Hi,
Does anyone know which encapsulation is recommended OGA or the native FLAC for flac files. Is OGA playable on hardware like squeezebox, iAudio etc?
Thanks
Full Version: OGA or FLAC? Which one is recommended?
never heard of OGA. i know about
OGG (can be used for flac, putting flac in an ogg container),
FLAC (is the standard)
OGM used as a video container. can contain flac files as well.
i think FLAC is used for portable players and other hardware

Xiph now recommends to use .oga for OggFLAC.

no, native FLAC has almost all the support (for squeezebox you can trancode on the server). FLAC in Ogg is better for editing, muxing >8 channels or with other codecs.This is a "lo-fi" version of our main content.
