384 kbps mp3 and iTunes?

[llyfre]

Hello,

I have a 384 kbps lame encoded mp3 which I cannot play in iTunes. a 320 kbps blade encoded mp3 works fine, how can I play the larger files? Is there some other mac OSX compatible player that will do the trick or do I need to update iTunes?... Any advise would be music to my ears,

A quick search only pulled up what the iPod is capable of playing. I would guess that iTunes would be the same which is:

AAC (16 to 320 Kbps)
MP3 (32 to 320 Kbps)
MP3 VBR
Audible
AIFF
Apple Lossless and WAV

Might want to look at this:

Never used it but the rest of the software they write is top notch.

iTunes LAME encoder (http://www.blacktree.com/apps/iTunes-LAME/index.php)

I don't know what difference having the LAME encoder above installed with iTunes will make, but you could try that.

Are there any programs on the mac that would allow someone to encode in Mp3 384??
It would be really awesome if someone knew
