Wrong bitrate when converting from 88200Hz

Open Rainoutt opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

When converting from 88200Hz sample rate, it switches the bitrate (instead of using 128 it uses 160)

Is this intended behavior? Here is the command : for %%i in (*.flac) do qaac64.exe "%%i" -a 128 -q 2 --copy-artwork

160kbps is the lowest for 48kHz/5.1ch (which you can see by qaac --formats). Isn't that file 5.1ch?
