Default AC3 bitrate is 192 kbps (transparent for music). You can override to 320 kbps (audiophile) or 96-128 kbps (voice / podcast / smaller file). The choice is exposed in the advanced options.

If the AC3 format is lossless (WAV, FLAC), you keep every sample exactly. If AC3 is lossy (MP3, AAC, OGG), the AC3 codec recompresses — quality depends on the bitrate and source audio. We default to 192 kbps which is transparent for almost all content.

Can I extract audio from multiple MKV files to AC3 in one batch?
Silent gaps usually mean the MKV file had a multi-track audio layout and we picked the wrong stream. Use the advanced "audio stream" option to explicitly pick stream 0, 1, etc., or re-mux all streams to a multi-track AC3 container if AC3 supports it.

MP3 plays everywhere. AAC / M4A plays on Apple and most Android. OGG / Opus needs a recent player on iOS. The advanced options expose a "device" preset that picks the AC3 codec most likely to play on your target.
