AAC Transparent preset still says 110-150k
160-190 (average 175) would be a lot closer to the truth, and that is with wavegained files. very hot CD are over 200 on average sometimes, but thats extreme case I guess
edit: Ivan/menno, are you appyling a --scale while encoding? (like lame preset, to prevent to most outrageous clipping). I noticed when encoding wavgained (89dB) albums, they always end up around 0.15 dB more quiet after encoding.
Would be nice to have an expert settting dialog for such things in the future.. minor thing of course

thanks
