What is a WEBA file?

WEBA – WebM audio (WEBA). WEBA is audio in a WebM file, usually Opus or Vorbis: the audio-only form of WebM, made for web browsers. Converting makes a new file: the sound is decoded and written again, so converting from a lossy format never brings back what was lost.

Good to know

  • The sound is decoded and written as a FLAC file, every sample kept.
  • WEBA lost detail when it was made, and FLAC cannot bring it back: the file gets bigger but sounds the same as the WEBA.
  • Tags such as title and artist are kept where the new format has room for them. Only the first audio track is converted; pictures and video are left out.
