The codec to encode the audio track. Codec "Without reencoding" copies the audio stream from the input file into output without re-encoding if possible.
Set the number of audio channels. This setting is most useful when downmixing channels (e.g., from 5.1 to stereo).
Set the sample rate of the audio. Music with a full spectrum (20 Hz — 20 kHz) requires values not lower than 44.1 kHz to achieve transparency. More info can be found on the wiki.

rmvb

RMVB (RealMedia Variable Bitrate) is an enhanced version of the RealMedia container format developed by RealNetworks, introduced around 2003. While the original RM format used constant bit rate encoding, RMVB employs variable bit rate compression that dynamically allocates more data to complex scenes with high motion and detail, and fewer bits to simpler passages like static shots or fade transitions. This approach yields significantly better visual quality at equivalent average file sizes compared to the constant bit rate predecessor. RMVB gained particular popularity in East and Southeast Asian markets during the mid-2000s, becoming a widely used format for distributing full-length movies and television content in regions where bandwidth was limited but viewers still demanded reasonable picture quality. The format typically uses RealVideo 9 or RealVideo 10 codecs, which drew on technologies comparable to H.264 in their compression approach. RMVB files support embedded subtitle streams and multiple audio tracks, making them practical for multilingual content distribution. The container retains the streaming-friendly architecture of RealMedia while delivering the quality improvements that variable bit rate encoding provides. Although RMVB has been superseded by MP4 with H.264 and other modern formats for most purposes, it retains a user base in Asian markets and can still be found in online media archives and personal video collections from the mid-2000s era.

voc

VOC (Creative Voice) is a digital audio container developed by Creative Technology and introduced alongside the original Sound Blaster card in 1989. It served as the native audio format for the Sound Blaster family during the DOS era, when Creative's hardware dominated PC audio. VOC files are block-based: each file consists of typed data blocks that can carry 8-bit unsigned PCM, 4-bit and 2.6-bit Creative ADPCM, 16-bit signed PCM, as well as A-law and mu-law encoded audio. This block structure also supports silence intervals, repeat loops, and marker points, giving game developers fine-grained control over sound playback. A notable advantage was hardware-level decoding — Sound Blaster cards could play VOC data directly via DMA transfer, freeing the CPU for other tasks in an era when processor cycles were precious. The format saw extensive use in DOS games from id Software, Sierra, and LucasArts. With the rise of Windows and the WAV format, VOC gradually fell out of mainstream use, yet it remains important for retro gaming preservation and for anyone working with vintage PC audio archives.
