I can't get oggenc to encode with decimal values like '4.999' for example. Is this the correct way of doing it?:

oggenc -q 4.999 file.wav
OR
oggenc -q 4,999 file.wav

I'm runnung WinXP. I get different behouvior if i use point or comma. I have tried changing decimal symbol in 'Regional and Language Options' (this usually cause problems in software because comma is default is my country). Oggenc will encode with quality 4 or 5 depending decimal symbol.

I think what is happening here is that oggenc will encode with quality 5 if you use 4.999 but with quality 4.99 if you use 4.99.

If you use comma (which is not recognaised?) it uses just 4.

For me (European) it works with comma but not a period.

If I use -q 4,5 Oggenc encodes at 4,5 and I get a nominal bitrate at 144 kbps

If I use -q 4.5 Oggenc encodes with quality 4 (IIRC) and a nominal bitrate at 128 kbps

lol! so true. I read somewhere that i can take 6 decimals so i didn't expect it to round it of.
