Saving edited MP3 does not keep its bit rate

Post by fernandolins »

When I save an edited MP3, Amadeus Pro (1.3.3) does not keep the bit rate of the file, but instead uses the last used settings for an MP3 file. So If the last file I exported was 128kbps, but I am editing a 320kbps file, when I hit save I get a 128kbps version instead.

I believe there should be a checkbox in the Preferences for setting that I want the file to keep its bit rate, or even better, a sheet asking me if I want to keep the original bit rate or the last used one if they are different — with the obligatory "Don't ask again" option).

I can't reproduce this, it should use the bitrate at which the file
was encoded.... Could you send me an example of a file where it would
save it back at the wrong bitrate? Something like that could happen
with VBR files since the bitrate is not really well-defined there...
