[Feature Request] Give option to change output format

[Daja177]

Not all my devices support the Ogg format, so it'd be great to have the option to output to MP3.

Try to install a player app that can play ogg files. It should be available on every platform.

Thanks for your response. The device in question is neither a computer nor a phone, and it isn't possible to install an additional player or anything to enable Ogg support. It supports MP3, AAC, M4A and WAV but not Ogg, so to use audio created with impd I have to convert it into any of these formats manually since impd is currently hardcoded to output Ogg specifically. While I recognize it's a fairly niche issue, there are people who prefer listening to music and/or condensed audio on separate devices, so allowing users to select the output format would really benefit users who have devices that don't support Ogg.

Yes.

To output mp3 we need to introduce a new config parameter that controls the output format. If it is set to mp3, the file extension and the codec should be changed.
