OGG Vorbis is an open-source, royalty-free format ideal for game development, web audio, and streaming. Converting from FLAC (lossless) ensures maximum OGG quality. FLAC files are typically 5-10x larger than OGG, making conversion essential for distribution.

Yes, OGG is lossy compression—it discards some audio data. However, starting from FLAC (lossless) ensures the best possible OGG quality. At quality 7-10 settings, most listeners cannot distinguish OGG from the original FLAC in normal listening conditions.

For music distribution, use 'Best' (q:10) or 'High' (q:7). For game audio and sound effects, 'High' or 'Good' (q:5) works well. For speech or podcasts, 'Good' (q:5) or 'Smaller' (q:3) provides adequate quality with smaller files.

OGG Vorbis is completely royalty-free and open-source, avoiding licensing concerns. It also provides better audio quality than MP3 at equivalent bitrates. Most game engines (Unity, Unreal, Godot) have excellent native OGG support.

Significant reduction: a 30MB FLAC file becomes roughly 3-5MB as OGG at quality 7, or 2-3MB at quality 5. Expect 80-90% file size reduction while maintaining good audio quality for most applications.

OGG works in Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge, Android devices, VLC, and most game engines. Apple devices (iOS, Safari on macOS) lack native OGG support—use AAC or MP3 for Apple platforms.

Yes! Keep FLAC as your archive/master copies. Use OGG for game builds, web distribution, or streaming. If you need to convert to different formats later, having the original FLAC ensures best results.

Yes! OGG Vorbis is supported in Chrome, Firefox, Opera, and Edge. For Safari compatibility, provide both OGG and MP3/AAC formats using HTML5 audio source tags. This covers all major browsers.

Currently, this tool processes one file at a time for optimal browser performance. For batch conversion (game asset pipelines), process files sequentially with consistent quality settings.

No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using FFmpeg WebAssembly. Your audio files never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.
