(Get the code!)
Well, they're currently as follows:
CD Quality, AAC
CD Quality, Lossless
CD Quality, Lossy
CD Quality, MP3
Voice, Lossless
Voice, Lossy
So I have 4 codecs that might I know are lossy, but I don't know what two of those codecs actually are (so I have no idea if they will work on my portable media player, for example).
I also have two lossless codecs; given that there are dozens of lossless formats and probably around 5 common ones, the distinction "CD Quality" and "Voice" is not very helpful here.
I suggest changing the codec names as described in the initial bug report. It would also be helpful to somehow indicate what "CD quality" and "voice" mean, but I have no suggestions on how best to handle that. I use locale en_US.UTF8 or 'C' depending on which machine I'm using.
