<div dir="ltr">If I were doing this, I would make each frequency switch a "chain boundary". This is analogous to having the overall stream actually be a playlist of consecutive streams, each representing one segment in which the radio channel was constant. Then each segment can easily be tagged with the frequency of the channel. You can do this using Ogg Vorbis or Ogg Opus today.<br>

</div><div class="im">> Sorry - I wasn't clear, what I would like to do with any future Opus file format is have a tag such as Title which can be continually updated throughout the recording, not fixed at the start. Obviously I could design my own storage format for this, but it always makes sense to 'go with the flow' so to speak.<br>

</div>Ah, I completely misunderstood that example then. I've never tried it,<br>
but Kate should be able to do that as metadata:<br>
<a href="http://wiki.xiph.org/Kate#Metadata" target="_blank">http://wiki.xiph.org/Kate#Metadata</a> particularly you can apply it to a<br>
time range, which is probably what you want when tagging something<br>
like radio frequency rather than an instantaneous label.<br>
