  PocketCasts does not support ogg / opus filetypes. This despite most devices being natively able to play this format. If supporting it isn’t a big deal, I’d appreciate if you guys supported it!

  Currently, ogg audio is not yet supported. We have an open feature request for this and I have added your feedback.

  Do you have any example of a podcast feed that uses ogg instead of mp3?

  Not a podcast, no. But I like to convert my Audible audiobooks into this format. It gives better quality and compression.

  Oh, I was wrong actually!

  PocketCasts can already play these files, it’s just not possible to upload them to your cloud!
