Jaikoz: Audio Fields

Previous

These are the fields displayed in the Audio Tab within the Edit Pane, this is for our information only you cannot modify these values.

Audio Size

This is the size of the file

AudioFormat

This shows the audio format. For example for MP3s this combines the MPEG Version and Layer. The version is related to the sampling rate the original file was sampled at. Most music and audio book tracks use Version 1 which can sample information at CD quality (44Mhz), whereas Version 2 and Version 2.5 can be used to sample at lower rates, typically they are used in niche applications such as sampling sound effects. For MP3 the layer will always be three, MP2 would have a value of two, and MP1 files would have a value of one.

Audio Bit Rate

This displays the sampling rate used to create this file,usually the higher the bit rate the better quality the encoding. If variable bit rate is used it will be shown in brackets after the average bit rate e.g. 192kbps (VBR)

Audio Playing Time

The length of the audio track in seconds

Audio Encoder

The encoder that encoded the track. For some audio formats (Ogg,Flac,Mp4) this fields can be modified by editing the Encoder field in the edit tab. MP3 files do not allow modification of this field, but you can set a corresponding field in the ID3 tag.

Audio Is Private

Is this the Audio File private (MP3 only)

Audio Is Protected
