Is it possible to play freeformat mp3 at 640 kbps in foobar? If yes, how? If not, why?
I don't actually intend to use something like this, I'm just collecting some information for my college project. Many thanks. This post has been edited by Wintershade: Nov 15 2005, 22:35 -------------------- Only the best is good enough.

Firon's right. Not many people are going to claim that 320kbps does not offer transparency for average material. Anyway, while I don't see much use in that test, I agree with you that such a bitrate for MP3 is overkill; in fact, I'd say that it is so for any lossy format and recommend lossless instead.

The use I see is that it proves that 640k mp3 is not going to be a viable format as a standard. The filesize is way too larger for that you get vs 320k. The differences are not that great as to be able to 100% say oh yes, 640k is better. |
