the vbr encoding is quite slower, what is the win for users there if the quality is similar? -- The default MP3 profile is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585496 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-media in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 585496] Re: The default MP3 profile is broken
Well first, this is still a bugfix, since the original intention has always been to use VBR... The slowing down is just a side-effect. Then, I highly doubt the quality is similar... And this brings up another point altogether, since the presets are called CD Quality, it's way to low quality anyways, for MP3 it should probably be Q4. And Q5 for Vorbis.

could you explain how the quality is better if the biterate is the same? -- The default MP3 profile is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585496 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-media in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 585496] Re: The default MP3 profile is broken
Huh? The _average_ bitrate is about the same... But that's the whole point of variable bitrate encoding... VBR conserves bits when they are not needed (silent pieces, etc), and uses them whenever the encoding gets hardest...

I've tried the change on lucid but it seems the quality stays around 125k, not sure if that works as it should, let's get testing on the new upload to maverick before considering that for lucid updates ** Changed in: gnome-media (Ubuntu Lucid) Status: Fix Committed = Triaged -- The default MP3 profile is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/585496 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-media in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
