From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686) Gecko/20030701 Galeon/1.3.7 Description of problem: I tried sj for the first time and the sound quality settings for ogg encoding don't seem to work. I know the setting was just added so I'm not sure it's supposed to work. I had it set for 256KBs but xmms reported the oggs at more like a 64KBs bitrate. I compared the sj oggs to grip (using oggenc -q4) made oggs and the grip ones sounded much better than the sj ones, and the rate was much higher. As a feature request, it would be nice for the quality meter on oggs to be related to the -q option of oggenc instead of the bitrate, if it doesn't already. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sound-juicer-0.5.2-7 How reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: 1. use sj to encode a cd with settings set to 256KBs (third on slider) 2. play them 3. Actual Results: Notice the low bit rate reported by xmms and the poor relatively poor sound quality. Expected Results: Much higher bit rate (double at least) and better sounding. Additional info:
