Emby Server incorrectly displaying Audio Bitrate?


Recommended Posts

Hi there

 

I don't know what is wrong, but I have started encoding my Audio to be 5.1 AAC CVBR 640Kbps but when playing back the media or viewing the info from within Emby it says it is 5.1 AAC 320 KBps. Am I missing something here as to why it shows as 320 Kbps as to 640 Kbps.

 

Cheers.

That's what ffmpeg (via ffprobe) told us, so that's what we're displaying.

Okay, so would you know the reasons as to why they mismatch substantially? is ffprobe an accurate read of the file or is my encoding actually at 640 Kbps?

 

Would it be safe to ignore in other words.

i wouldn't worry about it. maybe one is peak and the other is average.

And just a note. Regardless of what is displayed in the details, if you are direct playing, it will bitstream whatever the file actually is.
