I encode these formats from my source audio file, I want correctly name them with FileBot. However, once I load them, click tvdb, it does nothing.
I don't know if the extensions aren't supported or what. If they aren't I'd like to make a request for them to be supported!
EDIT: I'm on the latest version of FileBot.

What is your use case? What is the context? Are you just collecting the audio streams of TV series episodes? Please read
How to Request Help.
Episode Mode only works for Episode / video files, and not audio files. You can use
Plain File Mode if you want to process generic files and don't need
Episode Mode intelligence.

If you do need to process non-episode files as
Episode items, then you can always resort to
manual matching. Please watch
Getting Started #2 and read
FAQ #2 for details.

If your audio files are external audio streams that accompany a primary video file, then it will work out-of-the-box assuming that the set of files is already somewhat well-named so that FileBot can interpret and process the set of files as a single unit:
