Can VLC Display an Audio File's Bit Rate?

Postby jdanniel » 06 Nov 2009 14:30

Hello.

I just began working with VLC Media Player, on Windows 7 Home Premium, and have a question.

I've been using Winamp for years. Winamp displays an audio file's bit rate. I'd like to know if VCL Media Player can display an audio file's bit rate, as well.

If it currently can, then how do I get the bit rate to be displayed in the interface?

Thank you.

Jd

It can display it, but only the codec details section. You want it in the main interface?

Yes. Winamp displays bitrate in its main interface, and I was hoping I'd be able to have that same thing with VLC.

Can it be done?

a few vlc skins already display audio bit-rate and sample-rate on the main window (see for instance chaos, Modern, Colibri2, ...)
