File properties "Audio" tab doesn't display the correct bitrate for some MP3 files (VBR?)
I've noticed that the normal nautilus file manager interface doesn't display doesn't always display the correct bitrate for some MP3 files (I believe this part is handled by totem?) By comparison, opening the same file in e.g. Movie Player displays the correct bitrate. I think this may be due to the files actually being VBR. Given the above, is this behaviour a bug or simply a side effect of the nautilus/totem UI not really being able to say without reading the file what the correct average VBR rate is? If it's a bug I'd like to report it and get it fixed, so that you get hopefully the same answer from the "filesystem" ui's and other apps (e.g. Movie player in this case.) To be fair I've just checked and Rhythmbox also reports the incorrect bitrate?!?
