Why convert OPUS to FLAC?
- The result can be reviewed without changing the file that other people still use.
- FLAC is more appropriate for the target application, device, or delivery channel than OPUS.
- Compatibility is the main reason to convert when another person or service cannot open the source.
- The new format may support a feature the source container does not.
Will quality change?
The decoded samples are stored without another lossy encoder. Check metadata and channel layout after conversion. Check a sample before processing a large batch.

Platform compatibility
The output is a FLAC file. Use an application or device that accepts that format, and test the result on the destination platform if compatibility is critical.
When not to convert
- For a one-off preview, a local viewer may be faster than creating a new delivery file.
- If FLAC support is uncertain on the destination device, test a sample before processing a large batch.
- Do not use a converted file as the legal or signed original when signatures or metadata must be preserved.
