How to find out what the bitrate is of my audio file?

30,019

As commented above, most audio players specify the bit rate at play time. Try VLC.

EDIT: Well, not really at play time; you have to "CTRL+J" to see it. See below.

I guess, that's the bitrate?

    I wondered how I could find out what the bitrate is of my ogg audio file?

    My Operating System is Windows 7 32 bit, if that would make any difference.

      You might edit you original question to include your Operating System.

      Have you actually found it or have you just accepted an answer before you tested it? I just tried playing a file in VLC, it said 1.00x while playing, so if Andrei Duma is right then I suppose that'd be the bitrate, but I have my doubts.

    Why don't you say where in VLC?

    that move over with mouse does not work with ogg files since Windows does not have support for ogg files.

    ah ok.. I see. btw, an interesting note.. VLC doesn't seem to show bitrate of wmv or so it seems.. tools..codec information.. bits per sample 16. but windows "hovering" does show for wmv.

    If you install the Ogg DirectShow Filters then Explorer should show the information.

    @afrazier The DirectShow Filters for OGG don't solve the problem (on Windows 7).
