Description

Chrome and Firefox has supported mp4 containers with opus audio since version 70 and 63 respectively. The videos play natively in the browser.

The support for mp4+opus in chrome is detailed here: https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5100845653819392

For ffmpeg to merge opus in mp4 containers the -strict -2 option needs to be used in ffmpeg

I've testing thse videos in Firefox, Chrome, mpv, VLC, & Totem and all play correctly

Having an option to replace "-c copy" with "-vcodec copy" so that opus is properly encoded to aac without the speed loss of re-encoding the video would be nice too.

OPUS codec is experimental for MP4 isn't it? I’m not claiming it, FFmpeg says so.
