Recently I found that the `-b' and `-ab' options used for setting the |
2 |
output bitrate in ffmpeg and libav have no effect on my Gentoo machine. |
3 |
With Ubuntu (and the Medibuntu repository enabled), this does not |
4 |
happen. |
5 |
|
6 |
For example, for any `<bitrate>' I use in |
7 |
% ffmpeg -ab <bitrate> -i test.ape test.mp3 |
8 |
I get only `test.mp3' in 64kbps bitrate (as default setting). It's |
9 |
similar as for other audio/video formats and/or the `-b' option. |

My Gentoo system is updated daily with global ~amd64 keyword in use. I |
12 |
recently switched from ffmpeg to libav and they are both affected by |
13 |
this issue. |

15 |
Is anybody facing the same issue? Has anyone got any idea about the |
16 |
possible causes and/or solutions? Please tell me if more information is |
17 |
needed, thanks. |
