I had bit-rate limiting on a player I was using to test streaming across
my my broadband connection. Since the upload speed is only 265kbs, I was
testing with limiting set to 192kbs.

However it seems that the commands sent to Lame were getting it to
encode using VBR and the kbs being displayed in Winamp were often
higher than 192.

Another strange thing is that Lame was running at all. All of my music
is ripped at 192kbs CBR.

Surely LAME should only be invoked to re-encode on the fly if the
bitrate limiting setting is below the bitrate the MP3 file was ripped
at.
