I have split a large audio file into many smaller audio files.
However; the many audio files seem to have a total size that is about half the size of the original file (!!!), why is this?! It happens to .webm, .ogg, .mp3, and possibly others.
Also is this the right place for such a question?
2What is the fileformat of the file you start with? is it also a compressed format, or is it .wav? If compressed what format is it in and what compression settings were used? Does your output match that? – LPChip – 2017-06-14T18:34:48.040
@LPChip I've tried three different files that were .ogg, .webm, and .mp3. I did not re-encode anything, just
-c:a copy
from same fileformat to same fileformat. – ZN13 – 2017-06-14T18:56:30.740Your question is unclear. Please post the exact numbers, and show what exactly you did do to split the files. Thanks! – slhck – 2017-06-16T07:07:52.093
@slhck nah sorry, not gonna clarify cause I messed up, disregard this question. Asked moderator to delete the question because it's a waste of space but they declined. – ZN13 – 2017-06-16T07:18:51.433
What was the problem? You could also quickly ask on [chat] or [meta] to have it deleted, but I guess if there's an answer that got upvotes a mod is less likely to delete the question. – slhck – 2017-06-16T12:33:29.163
