Fidelity When Converting ASF to OGG

Format-exclusive metadata fields that have no equivalent in OGG Vorbis Audio are gracefully omitted without affecting the converted content. Quality in this conversion depends primarily on your source file. A high-quality ASF Container input produces an excellent OGG Vorbis Audio output. Xonvert defaults to high quality settings that keep file size reasonable without compromising perceivable quality.
