Default Bit rates

Hello, all...can anyone pls advise me if it's possible to SET the min/max bit-rate search I like on Pro?..I wish to have MIN 128 and MAX 192....

Is it possible to SET these as ONLY rates ?

Thank you in advance.

Unfortunately no. What you can do is search specific bit rates, eg: 192 kbps or 320 kbps using the Audio search & bit rate search criteria. Or else, as I do, I double click the top of the bit rate column so it arranges the bitrates with the largest at the top. (However those with no bit rate listed are listed before these.) Personally I generally use the ANy Type search & then filter them using the Audio & then artist filters (though keep in mind sometimes some artists may be in the results but because they don't have id3 tags, they don't show under artist.)

Are you refering to those files that don't show a bit rate? That is difficult to answer. Test them with your player before doing anything with them. If they play, then fine, you can burn them, otherwise they might be corrupt or ... ??? Sometimes they're fine, sometimes not. I believe this generally happens as a result of some other gnutella programs that don't translate the information correctly. Perhaps originating from a totally different p2p network. So my advice is to test 1st. But I'd tend to choose others if there's a choice. In my iTunes library, I have a no. of files with no bit rates that don't play. Some of those are ogg vorbis which is fine b/c I use a special 3rd party plug-in to play them & some might not be able to work with that plug in but ... there's some I've tested out with other players that simply don't work!

Thank You, Lord..(no pun intended lol)...I noticed these d/l today for Van Morrison with NO bit rates and when I selected on to d/l one it didn't even start to d/l ! So, like you said, best wait 'til there are visible bit-rates ...ty

I read in the FAQ about 'busy/awaiting source'...the below was the reply given,...I followed, (or tried to), do as it said but I hit a brick-wall...WHERE is the 'location' column referred to ?

A good way to avoid this problem is to take advantage of LimeWire's "grouping" feature, which puts similar files into folders. After you search, click on the "location" column to sort results by location. Files marked "multiple (N) are available from N locations. Try downloading these files first. When you try one of these "smart" downloads, LimeWire will try all the locations one after the other, making these downloads much more likely to succeed. e"...the below was the reply:...
