-q 6 %s %d
Vorbis Comment:
-q 6 -a "%a" -t "%t" -l "%g" -d "%y" -N "%n" -G "%m" %s -o %d
Note: the reason -q 6 is in italic in the above lists is that if you wanted to change the quality setting, thats what you would substitute with the new setting e.g. -q 10 or -q 2 for example.
- Do not worry what bit rate is shown in the bit rate drop down box, this will be ignored.
