Classes > EncodeMP3 class > Methods > EncodeFormats.MP3.GetLameEncodingBitrateEx method

Remarks

Retrieves a specific encoding bitrate (for Constant Bitrate or CBR) supported by Lame for a given frequency.

The number of available bitrates can be obtained using the EncodeFormats.MP3.GetLameEncodingBitratesCountEx method.

For further details about encoding in MP3 format refer to the EncodeMP3 class section.

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

Syntax

[Visual Basic]

Public Function GetLameEncodingBitrateEx (

nFrequency as Int32,

nBitrateIndex as Int16

) as Int32

[C#]

nFrequency	Frequency expressed in Hertz (e.g. 44100)
nBitrateIndex	Number representing the zero-based index of the bitrate

Return value

Value	Meaning

Negative value	An error occurred. Check the LastError property value in order to see the last error.
> 0	The requested encoding costant bitrate
