Hi!

I'm not sure if this topic should have been posted to bugs report or here, neither if it's related to mp3tag or to the Monkey Audio codec.

I just notice that the bitrate of .APE files increase as the tag grow bigger and i find it strange.

Anybody have an answer??

Thank you  
galileo

Seems like I'm not ignoring the size of the APEv2 tag while calculating the bitrate.

Moved to Bug Reports forum. Thanks for reporting!

Hi Florian,

It seems to be a common mistake because i checked foobar and it does the same.  
But also like foobar, your mp3tag is still a masterpiece.

Thank you

This has been fixed with Mp3tag v2.42.
