  @me_again Hi Andy, A long time ago, MEP used the Firebird SQL Server (FABS) to connect to the database created using PhotoManager and MP3 Deluxe, I believe. If you added files to the database and categorized anything, they would show up in MEP under

  [Solved] 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

  I still see Movie Edit Pro listed here. Movie Studio is too "advanced" for my aging brain, and I miss the MEP interface (just don't miss the glitches). @KJS-LES Hi, just to add my bit, most of us here have had Movie studio for a long time, from back

  RE: How to export MP3s & MP4 with 320kbs audio bitrate??
  @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.

  @KJS-LES Hi Kami, I assume from your description of the "Easy" version, you're referring to VideoEasy, which is very much a cut-down, very simple video editor. Movie Edit Pro (MEP) was rebadged in, I think, 2022 or 2023, as Magix Movie Studio (MMS)

  @KJS-LES Hi again Kami, I assume you mean that your account shows only MMS 2023 Platinum? If so, that is because it is the only Magix software you currently own, apparently. Your account will not show any potential upgrades (i.e. "new" versions).
