OK, thanks for the information. Then I‘ll use Ogg Vorbis. The sound
quality is acceptable; it’s only the file size that is doubled. But I‘ll
keep the original .wav files, so that I can easily recode to Opus in the
future, when support for very old Android versions is no longer
necessary (or possible).
