Frequently Asked Questions

Is converting OPUS to CAF free?

Yes. This OPUS → CAF converter runs entirely in your browser and is completely free — no account, no credits, no watermark.

Which devices and platforms can I use to convert OPUS to CAF?

Any modern device with a current web browser: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iPhone and iPad. There is nothing to install — the conversion happens locally.

Are my OPUS files uploaded to a server?

No. Files never leave your device. The entire OPUS → CAF conversion runs locally in your browser, so your data stays private.

Can I convert multiple OPUS files at once?

Yes — batch conversion is supported. Add as many OPUS files as you like and convert them to CAF in one pass, then download the results together.

What is the maximum file size?

There is no fixed server-side limit because the conversion happens in your browser. Practical limits depend on the available memory and CPU of your device.

Will converting OPUS to CAF reduce the quality?

Because both formats use lossy compression, the CAF output will not bring back any quality that has already been lost in your OPUS file. Avoid repeated re-encoding to keep the best quality.

Does CAF support transparency?

No — CAF has no alpha channel. Transparent areas of your OPUS file will be filled with a solid background colour in the converted file.

How will the file size change after converting OPUS to CAF?

Both formats use comparable compression, so the CAF output will be similar in size to your OPUS file — typically within 10–20% of each other.
