What to expect
- MP3 is lossy - audio quality drops slightly, and AC-3 multichannel audio is downmixed to stereo.

.trpfile can carry multiple audio tracks (e.g. different languages); runffmpeg -i in.trpwith no output file to list them before converting. - Large
.trpfiles (often 1-15 GB) may time out on online converters; use a local tool for big recordings.
