Convert MPG to FLAC
What is MPG?
MPG
MPG containers store MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 video with audio tracks (MP2 or AC3). Extracting audio means demultiplexing—isolating the audio stream from video data. Audio quality depends on the original encoding, typically DVD-quality.
- MPG combines video and audio streams in a container, allowing audio track extraction
- Contains separate audio track easily extracted to FLAC format
- Video stream discarded—only audio codec and bitrate matter
What is FLAC?
FLAC
FLAC is audio-only codec without visual components. Video requires frame sequences with visual data. FLAC lacks video streams—creating video from FLAC audio requires adding visual elements like static images, album artwork, or animated visualizations. This requires video editing software combining lossless audio with generated or imported visuals.
- FLAC contains pure audio data requiring video track addition for video output
- Linear prediction compression maintains bit-perfect audio reproduction
- Modern format—requires up-to-date software for compatibility
