Description Steve Daulton 2020-06-17 04:49:24 UTC

The Import file browser does not show .opus files when the file type filter is set to All supported files", or "FFmpeg-compatible files".

Comment 1 Peter Sampson 2020-06-17 05:16:02 UTC

Testing on W10 with Audacity 2.4.2 3276234

The same is true on Windows

Opus files only show in the "All files" list

They do not show in
a) "All supported files"
b) "FFmpeg compatible files"

Comment 2 Peter Sampson 2020-06-17 05:31:06 UTC

Testing on macOS 10.15.5 Catalina with Audacity 2.4.2 3276234

Same is true on Mac - but here it is slightly different.

In the "All supported files", or "FFmpeg-compatible files" lists the Opus file(s) shows but they are grayed out and not importable.  

This is a feature of the Mac import browser.

So marked al all platforms

Changed this to Windows and Linux as we do not (yet) support Opus on Mac

Tested on W10 with Audacity 3.0.0 2987896

Opus files are now shown when using the "All supported files" filter in the file picker dialog

Also works on W10 if you use the "FFmpeg-compatible files" filter.

Comment 7 Steve Daulton 2020-08-20 06:34:37 UTC

Fixed on Linux.
