I am trying to figure out if there is a way to change the default audio bitrate of mythtranscode. Seems that all MP3 transcoded audio defaults to 128 kbps. I would like to bump this up but can't figure out how. Is it possible to do this with the built-in mythtranscode or do you have to download something more advanced. Thanks all.

Edit the

Edit the file:
/etc/nuvexportrc

and change:
# Default mp3 bitrate in MythTV is 128
#
MP3
bitrate = 128
/MP3

To whichever bitrate you want.
