balrogg: lossless Vorbis/Opus recompressor

[kj911]

FitGirl: Wow! Those OPUS files are so compact! 2.5% size reduction is really not much.
For you, what would be the "sweet pot", in Kaktor's words, where you would use it, for a Repack? 5% or 10% or more?

Doesn't SREP or "lzp:8mb:3:h22:d64mb" give minimal results either? (min. 1-2KB.)

_contextmodel: Do you have a rough idea of ​​what the realistic gain would be if there were a public recompressor for WMV/WMA or MPEG-1/2 videos? (For MPEG2, there is a packer called "oca_mpeg06", but it is too slow.) Can the 2-5-10 or upto MB/s speed be achieved for these cases, as with BinkPack? You don't include H264 in the target list?

Around 10% with a reasonable MT-speed would be nice. But I doubt it's achievable with Opus. It's REALLY very good lossy format.

As for using it instead of oggre in repacks, will wait until the format matures and gets a stable version. Since the developer is interested in that project, it looks like just a matter of time.
