GoKawiilbalrogg
balrogg losslessly recompresses Ogg Vorbis and Opus files. Archives are typically 8-12% smaller than .ogg files and 3-8% smaller than .opus files.
Releases are not backwards or forwards compatible until v2.0 is reached.
balrogg is licensed under GNU GPL version 3. See COPYING. Report issues to Kamila Szewczyk [email protected]. The project is hosted at https://github.com/iczelia/balrogg.
Quick start
balrogg e music.ogg music.blr balrogg d music.blr music.ogg balrogg -b e * .ogg * .opus balrogg --progress -9 e music.ogg music.blr
e compresses and d expands. balrogg detects the codec. With -b , every remaining path is processed using the available cores and memory. Encoding appends .blr ; decoding removes it. Larger inputs run first.
-p or --progress displays a progress bar on stderr for encoding and decoding, with each Vorbis tuning trial identified separately. Use --progress-lines for logs. Batch progress uses separate lines labeled with the input filename.
