Type

[Visual Basic]  Public Property Bitrate As Int32

 

[C#]  public Int32 Bitrate {get; set;}

 

[C++]  public: __property Int32 get_Bitrate();  public: __property void set_Bitrate(Int32);

 

 

Remarks

Chooses a nominal bitrate (expressed in bps) to encode at in OGG Vorbis format. Attempts to encode at a bitrate averaging this. Takes an argument in kbps. This uses the bitrate management engine, and is not recommended for most users. A better alternative is setting the EncodeFormats.OGG.EncodeMode property to OGG_ENCODE_QUALITY and using the EncodeFormats.OGG.Quality property. 

 

This property is used only in the following situations: 

 

During a recording session if the EncodeFormats.ForRecording property is set to ENCODING_FORMAT_OGG and the EncodeFormats.OGG.EncodeMode property is set to OGG_ENCODE_BITRATE (for further details see the How to perform a recording session section). 

During a CD ripping session if the EncodeFormats.ForCdRipping property is set to ENCODING_FORMAT_OGG and the EncodeFormats.OGG.EncodeMode property is set to OGG_ENCODE_BITRATE (for further details see the How to perform a CD ripping session section). 

During an exporting session if the EncodeFormats.ForExporting property is set to ENCODING_FORMAT_OGG and the EncodeFormats.OGG.EncodeMode property is set to OGG_ENCODE_BITRATE (for further details see the How to export a recorded sound section). 

 

This property is the same as entering either the -b <kbps> or --bitrate <kbps> setting inside the Appendix B - OggEnc command line. 

 

For further details about encoding in OGG Vorbis format refer to the EncodeOGG class section. 

For further information about available encoding formats see the EncodeFormatsMan class.
