  • Mp3 encoding – higher bit rates not available ??

    Posted by Randall Clarke on May 1, 2005 at 1:37 am

    Vegas 4. When rendering to divx I only have a maximum of 56 kbps / 24 khz data rate encoding for
    mp3. I installed lame – has better encode rates but when I try to use that, the render fails…Would like to encode at
    128 kps and 48 khz… can anyone tell me what is going wrong ?

    thanks

    You’re using a “wrong” codec, which is limited.
    I use “FHG Radium” mp3 codec beside xvid for low
    bitrate works.
    I found this mp3 codec some time ago on the net,
    it was free, search on google for it.

    Hi

    thanks for the response… I installed the codec and there is now a second mp3 tab with the higher data rates…however, it still crashes !!!! Both with xvid and divx. On my win2k build I was able to encode no problem at higher bit rates…with xp, no dice

    not sure what else to try as this is 2 codecs tried now, lame and your suggestion…

    Hi,

    I’m working on Win2k hungarian version, sp4 with all patches available, and Vegas 5.0a.

    All I can tell you, that lame caused crashes for me too,
    then I found radium fhg mp3 codec.
    I completely removed lame, before I installed the radium.
    (If something, this could make difference… or?)
    After and since that everything works like a charm.
    No crash, no bitrate limit, just work…

    If it’s something about XP, I can’t give any help, I don’t use
    XP yet.

    Hope I could help.
