FLAC and AAC

[jt49]

I would like it if PTE would allow to import audio clips of types FLAC and AAC. For AAC there is a workaround, but not a nice one.

BTW: In the Online Help, I cannot find the information which audio types are accepted by PTE. It would be nice to see it.

I would like also.

For flac there is also a workaround.

Could you both be a little more specific on this request? For example, what experiences have led to the suggestion. 

[denisb]

FLAC vs WAV ; they are lossless, but flac is compressed. For the same audio:

flac 19132 ko

wav 46735 ko

AAC (m4a) vs mp3.  The quality is better for AAC with the same bitrate.

if you want the audio of a Youtube video, you can get the AAC directly
