You can't turn an mp3 file from 128kbps to 192kbps, the file will be bigger but the quality will be the same, once you encode audio to mp3, some quality is lost and you can't get it back. However, you can do the opposite (reduce its quality).

Oh really? well when i download something in WinMX and play in Windows Media it goes to 192kpbs :)

I think loparda it right..  when I convert a 128 kb mp3 file to 192 with dBpoweramb  the quality is still the same :)

then the file isn't 128kbps, but 192kbps... as lopardo has said, there is no way that a 128kbps file can be upgraded to 192kbps....

It's like playing an old bad VHS tape and expecting it to see as high definition DVD-quality... impossible....

The program Paperless gave is very good. I use it myself, but I use it to convert 192 to 128 (to reduce size when I want to put it on my mp3 player ;)).

It's lopardo... :dodgy:

Cookie is right, maybe WinMX is showing a wrong number.

Perhaps 192kbps is the uncompressed bitrate, and although it isn't the same quality as a 192kbps wav file, the compression makes it sound very similar.

i though .cda files were at like 300+ kbps, not to mention they don't cut out the high pitched sounds like in .mp3 encoding, don't thing an "uncompressed bitrate" exists becuz the whole point of mp3 is compression
