Hi, I noticed that speex.org has a banner that mentions that Opus is better than Speex in all aspects. The supported bitrate range for Speex seems to be as low as 2kbps though but Opus can only go as low as 6kbps. Is this one aspect where Speex is still preferred? (I understand that it's not a very common scenario though). Thanks, Manpreet. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

For anything below 6 kb/s, I would actually recommend using codec2 rather than Speex or Opus.
