Version: desconocido (using KDE 3.4.1, Debian Package 4:3.4.1-1 (3.1)) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.6 (Debian 1:3.3.6-5) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.10 KDE 3.4.1. I select 192kbps for the lame encoding bitrate in KDE, but when I extract the mp3 files from audio cd in audiocd:/ or media:/hdd, the resulting mp3 file has a wrong bitrate label, in fact it shows 32kbps, so file properties shows 32kbps and amaroK too. If I open this file with XMMS it shows the real value of the bitrate: 192kbps. If you need more data (like KDE lame encoding configuration...) please tell me.
Do you use variable bit encoding?
|| ------- Do you use variable bit encoding? Yes, I have selected 224 kbps with variable bit encoding. If I open the encoded mp3 with XMMS and see "File info" I can read "VBR (avg. 215 kbps)", so I think is correct. But if I open the same file with amaroK o see properties with Konqueror I can read "Ratio: 32kbps". 215 is OK but 32 not. Why XMMS can see the real value and KDE not?
This is a duplicate of bug number: 79235. See it for more details into why it is occurring. Luckly it has been resolved, but it was a very large code change (complete re-write of the encoder) so I put it in for 3.5 and not part of the 3.4.x releases. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 79235 ***
