got some mp3 tracks.played with CD player...they are showing 320kbps sample..but your ears does not agree
well they are probably fake...high bit rate MP3...so what to do to spot the nut!
well,
i use use cool edit pro. It visually displays how strong the frequency is. For a legitimate 320 file it should show that it cuts off no less than 18k. Most 128-192 bit files you find off the internet cut off around 16k or lower. If I check a 256-320 file which has a reading at 16k or lower then I know its a misrepresentation or fraud. Some of these fake 320s may not actually be re-encodes. Some may just be encoded from cheap encoding software.
..any other tricks ?
