I think you can rename it to .ogg. OPUS is supported in Android 5+, but only in mkv container format, WTF.

.opus is working perfectly on VLC In 2020, what is technically preventing Music Player to implement it in a relatively easy way? (Considering nowadays all messaging apps use .opus for Voice messages, and Youtube itself provides opus as the highest quality sound on their platform)

And recently: https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2019/03/introducing-android-q-beta.html

In addition, Android Q supports audio encoding using Opus

So... Android 5.0 supports opus in .mkv: https://source.android.com/compatibility/5.0/android-5.0-cdd#5_1_1_audio_codecs Android 7.0 supports opus in .ogg: https://source.android.com/compatibility/7.0/android-7.0-cdd#5_1_1_audio_codecs Android 10 supports opus in .opus, .webm, and [.mp4, .m4a, decode only?]: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/37054258 https://github.com/LineageOS/android_frameworks_base/commit/2baa408f993d2afdf7f186cc33e5a09bbad2c92d https://source.android.com/compatibility/10/android-10-cdd#5_1_3_audio_codecs_details

This player seems to rely more on Android's multimedia framework than VLC and is therefore bound by the limitations of this framework (unless one applies format specific hacks).

Android 10 supports opus in .opus, .webm, and [.mp4, .m4a, decode only?]:

I can confirm that Opus within Ogg files with .opus extension are detected and playable under Android 10.

i can play opus files perfectly fine.

for a few months, since i started trying.

not sure how long ago, but seems this have been solved somehow?

anyway...

opus tag editing still doesn't work.
