Interesting situation! Did you know you can get most of the way there already by using the `max_bitrate` config option? Using that, you'd get: - Lossless => your configured lossy...

Aha. So to be clear, you'd like more intricate policies than just "if lossless then X; if lossy then Y"? Are there particular circumstances where you need finer-grained decisions than...

Ah, that's cool. In that sense, it's actually pretty close to what you get by specifying just "MP3" or just "AAC" as the output format. That is, `convert` will transcode...

I also suppose the `never_convert_lossy_files` option is also pretty similar. It gets you the behavior you listed above, except that "lossy(other)" just gets copied instead of "warn and AAC".

Got it! You did say "an allowed codec list"; sorry it took me a while to catch up. Thanks for working through it. I can totally see the utility of...

Awesome! Please do let us know if you need help navigating the code.

I don't have too much to add (I don't appear to have any box sets like that), but I'd be interested to hear the discussion.

Hmm… good point, @pprkut. The current metasync backends are for local players, but I don't see any immediate reason why a service like ListenBrainz wouldn't fit the same mold.

Sounds awesome!

Wow; super cool! Yeah, that honestly sounds very useful.
