Hi. Why are you increasing the bit rate from 128 to 320? You are not increasing the quality in any way, you will stillhave a file with 128kbs quality but the file will be larger without any increase of quality. Walter. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio

Okay...then I must have gotten incorrect information; it may be "mind over matter" but it seems like files work better and sound better in the VIP Client if they are at a higher bit rate! I figured it did increase the quality of sound; maybe my ear is just telling me the wrong things? Tom Kaufman

Hi. strictly speaking no, not in the file itself. A 128kbs quality file will always be a 128kbs quality file. You can downgrade from 128kbs but if you do that, you will never get a 128kbs quality again for that file. However what you can do is improve the quality of the reproduction in

I hear all of what you folks are saying; I do have a question: before the chat client that VIp has now was updated, often if a file was at a lower bit rate, the client player would not play it! However...once the bit rate was upgraded to say 320, it usually would do the trick! Does anyone know

Hi. What contents do the files have? Is it music, or spoken word? If it is the spoken word then you could try reducing the bit rate and see if that will play because the spoken word doesn't have to be at 128kbs. On the other hand, if it is music then I don't really know the answer to that

the player has a minimum bit rate at which it will decrypt the files, so it works. At 10:47 AM 11/26/2015, you wrote: I hear all of what you folks are saying; I do have a question: before the chat client that VIp has now was updated, often if a file was at a lower bit rate, the client player

The files are music (we usually don't have as much trouble with files not playing with the latest version of the client now; what I am saying is...often someone would have a file that wouldn't play (with the older version of the chat client) raising the bit rate usually would allow it then to

Have you heard the mini 2 with retina display? I have one of those, and the sound is ok, but not special. Kindle fire hd 7 of about the same vintage has better sound IMHO. My husband's HTC cell phone has better sound, sadly. But I haven't heard the mini 4. mary
