Re: [Labs-l] Converting .wav to .ogg

Note Rahul, I don't foresee any issue with enabling .wav on commons. We can explore labs transcoding if ( and only if ) we actually experience any issue with enabling .wav on commons. For now our effort would be better spent on adding .wav support to TMH, and once we have that code merge, posting a message to Commons village pump to enable it on commons.

I don't know what specific use case Raoul has in mind, but
for simple .wav to .ogg encoding oggenc from the
vorbis-tools package should suffice.

>I am building a "Pronunciation Recording Tool" using webRTC . Browsers record audio in .wav format, but since Wikimedia Commons doesnt allow file upload in .wav format, I want to transcode the audio clip to .ogg format before uploading it to commons. So as an alternate option ,I wanted to transcode at Wikimedia labs server
