Under Windows10 64bit, the following information were displayed for some MP3 files. (Only 3)
```
Codec BitRate Freq. Length
```
file 1 MPEG 1 Layer III 49394 kBit/s 44100 Hz 00:01
file 2 MPEG 1 Layer III 29237 kBit/s 44100 Hz 00:01
file 3 MPEG 1 Layer III 25723 kBit/s 44100 Hz 00:01
At first, I thought these files seems to be damaged/broken. ☹
But with the different application (like XRECODE, iTunes) indicate nomal figures.
For File 1, 146 kbps/VBR, & 05.39, for File 2, 156 kbps/VBR, 03:08,
and for File 3, 128 k/CBR, 03:20.
And these files are played with iTunes without any problems. 😆
It is usually one of reference data for me but sometimes important to know the bitrate.
