But there is info on Fii0's

WRT TV I think the Proms files I've fetched are all 320k audio now. But
I've not checked in detail what I've got thus far. My personal regret here
is that I'd prefer the 25fps video with 320k audio, but have to go for
50fps to get it.

I've just been told unofficially that this is a 'legacy' issue. i.e. to
ensure that as many types of device as possible can play them, even ancient

As far as I'm aware, the BBC's audio estate runs at 48 KHz (well, except
the Archers studio - and probably a handful of other studios - for legacy
purposes).
Looks like podcasts are still encoded to 44.1 KHz via iBroadcast (the MP3s'
encoder tag indicates ffmpeg (currently Lavc57.24)). Except

In fact every BBC podcast I have seen, admittedly a tiny sample of the
population of podcasts, has used a 44.1kHz sample rate.
Are there are recent examples I could get using GiP?
I have a feeling that GiP support for podcasts has been
