[mp3encoder] Question abt VBR

2007-03-20 Thread howard chen
I have a stereo 16 bit wav file sampled at 48000Hz I use two methods to encode 1. CBR, 128Kbps 2. VBR, 128Kbps, Joint Stereo When comparing the file size, I have 2 questions 1. Why the file size of VBR is bigger than CBR? 2. Why VBR produce more samples in the output (viewing the properties u
