Quality
controller
Specifies the bit rate, i.e. the data flow per unit of time and the
quality of the saved data. If the bit rate is small, less data is
transferred, the file is then small, but quality is lower. If the bit
rate is high, more data is transferred, the file size is then large,
but the quality is high.
File format OGG: OGG Vorbis settings
Constant Bit Rate
check box
Specifies a constant bit rate, i.e. the data flow per unit of time
and the quality of the saved data, is the same over the entire
audio file.
If the bit rate is small, less data is transferred, the file is then
small, but quality is lower. If the bit rate is high, more data is
transferred, the file size is then large, but the quality is high. The
default value of 128 is near CD quality.
Variable Bit Rate
check box
Specifies a variable bit rate, i.e. the data flow per unit of time
and the quality of the saved data, adapts to the dynamic of the
audio file. The bit rate, for example, can be lowered at quieter
points in the track.
You can set the variable bit rate between 0 and 100. 0 is the
lowest quality, 100 the highest quality.
