Feature Request: Ability to save audio files as FLAC

Open jonfairbanks opened this issue 5 months ago • 3 comments

Currently saving as audio only only support MP4A and Opus. Can support also be added for FLAC?

Can you provide a link to a YouTube video that has FLAC as one of the formats?

Ah sorry, this may have been a misunderstanding on my part on how YouTube audio works. I checked a few videos and it seems they do only include MP4A and Opus. I had used some tools in the past that would save as MP3 or FLAC but they may have been doing conversions after the fact.

Would be cool if TubeSync would consider an audio only conversion feature in the future.

Thanks for your work on this tool!

You can do conversions already.

It's a bit complicated to setup, and usually there's no advantage to changing the file container when using a media server.
