New File Formats

After a small update, media.io now supports the WavPack Audio Codec. This means you can now convert WV to MP3 and other formats.

Also, I have enabled three new file extensions:

• .mpga This is actually MP3 audio.
• .rbs Again, an alias for MP3.
• .ram Most of the time, .ram files are metadata files which do not contain audio but it seems there are occasional exceptions.

Pro Accounts

I am still working on pro accounts though most of the coding is done. You might see pro accounts appear at media.io in January 2011. Thanks for your patience.

FLAC at media.io

media.io now supports the FLAC losless audio compression format. At this time, FLAC support is decoding only but over time, I will add a few more formats you can convert music to and FLAC will be one of them.

Just so you know, FLAC was the seventh most “requested” format at media.io.

So, what are you waiting for, go convert FLAC to MP3 online at media.io.

Upcoming Features

media.io will soon support one or two more audio – and video – formats. I am thinking of FLV and maybe AIFF. I am also working on making WAV decoding more robust.

As always, if you have any questions, email me or post a feature request.
