I tried to follow your solution and was not able to reproduce it. I have a FLAC file that I transcode to ogg using Rhythmbox. I did not change the rhythmbox.gep. In ~/.gstreamer-0.10 I dropped the GstVorbisEnc.prs Doug McMahon. I also created a "presets" folder and placed a copy GstVorbisEnc.prs. I tried it three times. The first two times, only one copy of the GstVorbisEnc.prs existed at one of the previous location. The third time I placed a copy at both locations. I opened up Rhythmbox, transcoded the file and looked at its metadata. The bit rate was always 112. In previous versions (10.04), whatever setting I had in the ogg preset was used to transcode to ogg. I then compared the Rhythmbox.gep file in here and the default one. There were no changes to the ogg vorbis section. This is a workaround that I want to function. Still, the bug is not resolved as the settings button is grayed out and no changes to encoding quality can be made through the GUI.

So there is no user available means to adjust encoding for vorbis, mp3, mp4, ect. Even using something like sound-juicer to change the very same 'Preferred.. ' is of no use, Rhythmbox doesn't use.
