Opus is new enough to not have that VBR hardware compatibility issue. Either compatible, or not.

-Some codecs have a more efficient variable bitrate (VBR) mode which optimizes to a given, constant quality level rather than having variable quality at a given, constant bitrate (CBR). The info above is for CBR. VBR is more efficient than CBR but may not be as hardware-compatible.[[BR]]
