It doesn’t have any optional dependencies but perhaps it needs something else installed for that functionality? ---

> [@dalto](#): > > but perhaps it needs something else installed for that functionality? Soundconverter doesn’t need any additional codecs for conversion. As far as I know, it utilizes gstreamer capabilities for decoding and encoding. What is the output of `yay -Qs gst-` I don’t like reading output in screenshots. I prefer text in code tags. 😉 ---

I’ve used soundconverter in the past, i sometimes encoutered some issue like no ogg, since i’ve moved to [https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86\_64/ciano/](https://archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/ciano/) ---

For me the best converters out there are XCFA (unluckily no further development by the, if I’m right, french developers; still keep a package of the last version as a backup, because no more availability in AUR) and Soundkonverter (most complete in my opinion; supports a ton of formats). I still hope that someone will pick up development of XCFA. ---

I advanced on my side, I found by myself the solution to my problem it was a missing package … That digital ink for nothing … Thank you all the same for your help! ![Capture du 2021-12-19 19-09-42](https://forum.endeavouros.com/uploads/default/original/3X/d/3/d3bf6903e20405fbfcd2eb231c10ab9cafc075a5.png) ![Capture du 2021-12-19 19-09-52](https://forum.endeavouros.com/uploads/default/original/3X/6/a/6a56a73ee0234c0f6e58a6abaa7c6b12ad3260c3.png) ---

Additional output on my system, which provides ogg format in soundconverter : ```auto local/gst-plugin-gtk 1.18.5-2 Multimedia graph framework - gtk plugin local/gst-plugins-base 1.18.5-1 Multimedia graph framework - base plugins local/gst-python 1.18.5-3 Multimedia graph framework - python bindings ``` Maybe installing those already solves the issue. Edith says : I accidentally deleted the package in my list, which would have solved the issue. 😃 ---
