So if I understand correctly, you're pressing the paperclip and "Audio"? If so, then I guess Whatsapp will always convert this audiofile indeed. Instead, simply press the paperclip and "Document" to send the mp3 file as is. Then you don't have to convert to opus either. > I convert it using > > ffmpeg -i audio.mp3 -c:a libopus newfilename.ogg On 18-7-2019 15:30, Ted Park <kumowoon1...@gmail.com> wrote: > ffmpeg -i audio.mp3 -c:a libopus -b 19.1k -ac 1 -r 16k newfilename.ogg Why haven't you tried the command suggested by Ted? -b 19.1k needs to be -b:a 19.1k btw. Opus uses 1 samplerate: 48000Hz. So -r 16k would only needlessly hurt your audiofile. But again, if above works, then you don't have to convert to opus in the first place.

This 'opusvoice.ogg' file of yours was made by Whatsapp. You used FFmpeg to create 'newfilename.ogg' which used the "Lavf58.28.102" library to convert the audio to opus. That's all. -- Reino _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
