Opus excels at getting good sound quality at lower bitrates.&lt;p&gt;If there&amp;#x27;s a talk or lecture on Youtube that you&amp;#x27;re about to grab, try the 50kbps Opus version and save your limited space for more important things, but you might need to remux from webm to an ogg container for compatibility.&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;&lt;code&gt;    e.g. youtube-dl -f249 $URL  --exec &amp;#x27;ffmpeg -i {} -vn -c:a copy {}.ogg&amp;#x27;&lt;/code&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Opus Audio Codec – FAQ</title><url>https://wiki.xiph.org/index.php?title=OpusFAQ</url></story>
