    struct GstVorbisEnc;

## Property Details

### The `“bitrate”` property

      “bitrate”                  gint

Attempt to encode at a bitrate averaging this (in bps). This uses the bitrate management engine, and is not recommended for most users. Quality is a better alternative. (-1 == disabled).

Flags: Read / Write

Allowed values: [G_MAXULONG,250001]

Default value: -1

### The `“last-message”` property

      “last-message”             gchar *

The last status message.

Flags: Read

Default value: NULL

### The `“managed”` property

      “managed”                  gboolean

Enable bitrate management engine.

Flags: Read / Write

Default value: FALSE

### The `“max-bitrate”` property

      “max-bitrate”              gint

Specify a maximum bitrate (in bps). Useful for streaming applications. (-1 == disabled).

Flags: Read / Write

Allowed values: [G_MAXULONG,250001]

Default value: -1

### The `“min-bitrate”` property

      “min-bitrate”              gint

Specify a minimum bitrate (in bps). Useful for encoding for a fixed-size channel. (-1 == disabled).

Flags: Read / Write

Allowed values: [G_MAXULONG,250001]

Default value: -1

### The `“quality”` property

      “quality”                  gfloat

Specify quality instead of specifying a particular bitrate.

Flags: Read / Write

Allowed values: [-0.1,1]

Default value: 0.3
