When playing an MP3 file, the player may not correctly recognize the playing time.

Many of these issues are due to special tags prepended to MP3 files, which occur in VBR encoded MP3 files.

Vbrfix is a software that has the potential to solve this problem.

The official website is closed and difficult to obtain, but we confirmed that it is available from the Internet Archive. ( Internet Archive , 2017-08-18 )

Variable bitrate has a smaller file size than fixed bitrate, so if the file size is the same, variable bitrate gives better quality.
