It turns out, I, in fact, didn't add/enable it properly, so it's still not there.

So can you add support for an OGG Opus codec? Because there is only support of OGG Vorbis in mods...

So any chance to add OGG OPUS handle in future versions?

There are no plans to add support for Opus at the moment, but never say never. Do you have some specific issue with Vorbis or does it come down to quality/bitrate?

When I'm trying to add some sounds/music to mods - game absolutely didn's understand half them, because half of .ogg's are OPUS, but this .ogg files are playing normaly with any audio player... Also, the quality of OPUS codec is always higher than Vorbis anyway.
So isn't all of that the reason to handle ALL .ogg files and add OPUS to codecs for Factorio instead of getting half of .ogg-files uncompatible at all...

A google turned up

Opus replaces both Vorbis and Speex for new applications, and several blind listening tests have ranked it higher-quality than any other standard audio format at any given bitrate until transparency is reached, including MP3, AAC, and HE-AAC.

which seems like a pretty damn stellar recommendation.
