Encoding is the second phase of making an MP3 file. Encoders are used to
convert the stored audio tracks, usually WAV files, into MP3 files. MP3
encoding is considered lossy compression, which means that some data is lost
during compression. However, using the standard sampling rate and bitrates
will ensure that your MP3 files retain much of their audio quality. The standard
bitrate of most MP3 files is 128Kbps, although some are set higher, at 160 or
192Kbps. Higher bitrates will result in larger MP3 file sizes, with better audio
quality. Use PlayCenter or to extract audio tracks and encode MP3s.
See the PlayCenter Online Help for more information.
