Sound-Juicer displays file extensions in the "Output Format" box -- which is IMHO pointless

Hi, in the "Output Format" box in the Preferences window, Sound-Juicer displays a file extension next to each codec in the list. File extensions are completely pointless IMHO, the codecs actually have *names*. If you want to make clear that Ogg Vorbis hides behind "CD Quality, Lossy", please call the codec by its name. The added string ".oga type" doesn't tell me anything. So please change CD Quality, Lossless (.flac type) -> CD Quality, Lossy (FLAC) CD Quality, Lossy (.oga type) -> CD Quality, Lossy (Ogg Vorbis) Voice, Lossless (.wav type) -> CD Quality, Lossy (WAV) Voice, Lossy (.spx type) -> CD Quality, Lossy (Speex) or similar. NB: I think this "feature" is rather new, because I haven't seen it before. I cannot tell when it has been added, though, because I don't use Sound-juicer that often. NB2: This issue doesn't seem to be restricted to Sound-Juicer, since I have also seen it in (at least) Rhythmbox. Please reassign this bug report if appropriate. Thanks, Fabian Other information:
Reassigning to gnome-media.
Mass move to new component.
This was RESOLVED some time ago. The current formats have names like "MPEG 4 Audio", no extension mentioned.
libgnome-media-profiles is not under active development anymore. Its codebase has been archived. Closing all its open tickets as part of housekeeping. See also https://gitlab.gnome.org/Infrastructure/Infrastructure/-/issues/595
