[Feature Request] FLAC file support

[aridiamond]

I have a large library of music in .flac files, and I'd want to use them for rhythm games withiout having to re-encode them into .mp3 every time.

Our targeted games don't support FLAC generally nor should they considering the space usage.

I'd also love if AV supported flac because I mainly use it for BPM detection but like Delta already said, no game supports flac and it doesn't really make sense to support more file types that said games don't even support.
I think I might just fork the project and add support for other lossy and lossless formats though.

Current "Convert Audio..." in beta can handle converting .flac to a supported AV codec.

Converting to .ogg or .wav shouldn't cause any drifting or sync changes (based on my limited test), and should be usable as a temporary audio source.

Just saying... Funny enough, FLAC files are actually smaller in size compared to WAV 👀
Also... OutFox has FLAC support since 2022 👀💦

Oh, and this is for OP... converting a file to MP3 is certainly the worst idea, you WILL screw up the sync because of the extra offset added at the beginning.
If you need to convert a song to another format, use OGG.
