So, I want to find out who VBR's and who CBR's.
I don't care for anyone who ABR's. >_>
2 parts.
Part 1: Can you VBR? (yes or no; if no, then why not?)
VBR technical restrictions (such as a software player (really codec) cannot play VBR or a hardware device cannot VBR) should be less and less of an issue with today's ever-growing technology.
CBR would be a preference if you plan to stream (internet stream or even DLNA; internet streaming can suffice with lower than 320 kbps).
CBR would be a preference if you use old software/hardware that cannot read VBR (circa 1815 A.D.)
CBR would be a preference if you're hoity toity.
There's other reasons, I'm sure.
VBR is aimed at constant quality.
CBR is aimed at constant bitrate.
This is an old story.
Let's get to brass taxes: Can you VBR?
Not: Do you prefer VBR or CBR.
But for those of you who CBR, I would like to know if you are technically incapable of VBR'ing.
I just want a more informed consenus on whether or not people can VBR when it's available.
I know a lot of people are limited in the knowledge of things about software and codecs and stick to ancient (outdated, deprecated, abandoned) software/codecs. Usually, this is a clear sign of convenience (who wants to learn something new, anyhow?). Or IOCSPD (Internet-Obsessive-Compulsive Self-Proclaimed Disorder).
Answer:
Yes or no; if no, then why not?
Part 2: The Ancient Battle (now in 2014)
Answer:
V0 vs. 320
