I'm looking for opinions on which audio codec would be the best for using in MKV creation. By best I mean the one that produces good quality and has the least compatibility issues.
I'm creating 8-10 GB x264 rips of my BDs with 2 channel downmixed audio. I've been playing around with nero's AAC, lame MP3, FLAC, and OGG.
some of the problems I've found:
FLAC is huge.
AAC doesn't demux from MKV as well as others, especially if vbr.
OGG gets corrupted sometimes when mkclean.exe (http://www.matroska.org/downloads/mkclean.html) is used. I like using mkclean because it makes seeking really smooth and quick in my player of choice (j.river mediacenter).
AAC and MP3 aren't open source.
Any opinions would be appreciated.
