How to export MP3s & MP4 with 320kbs audio bitrate??

When I try to export files (which are 320 audio) to Mp3 or Mp4 format, via MEP (2026), the highest audio-rate displayed in the drop-down menu = 192kbs.

This seems quite bizzare, as exporting at 256/320 is an extremely basic feature, that you'd expect from literally any/every editing program...

But so how exactly do you export into Mp3/Mp4 format, using MEP, retaining 320 audio bit-rate?

@Apollo89x

What are you actually trying to do?

MP3 Export has 320 in the bitrate droplist.

MP3 in MP4 is not common and as far as I can see, not offered with VDL (perhaps it is in VPX?). AAC in MP4 is very common and that is why it's offered in VDL. 192khz has been deemed high enough (192 AAC isn't the same as 192 MP2).

MP2 in MPEG 2 is common and 320 is available in the droplist.

BTW, it's not MEP 2026, it's VDL 2026.
