bit rate

All I have is windows media player and music match.
Do I need something else?

In MusicMatch, select File from the menu and then select Convert Files.....
Find the appropriate file from the proper folder. There's aslide at the
botom of the window for selecting the appropriate bit rate. Try that and l
et us know if it works.

when creating a VCD I get the message that the bit rate of the MP3 is
too low. How do I increase it or should I convert to a wav? Thanks

Robin,

I use a bit rate of 128 Kbs and I don't have nay problems. That's
usually what's recommended to ensure a fairly good sound. I'm not
sure what causes Xat to give the error message but try 128Kbs and
see what happens.

Robin,

Do you have an audio editor? Which one? If so, when you save the
file you should be able to select the bit rate of the MP3, possibly
through an options button.

Hello robin

Converting it to a WAV should do the trick.

CDEX can be used to make MP3s as another way although you would probably have to
go MP3 -> WAV -> MP3

I used music match and increased the bit rate
and it works fine. Just strange, that never happened
before.

thanks.
