Description

When converting to MPEG-2 layer III and MPEG-2.5 layer III FFmpeg gives error report "Unsupported sample rate".
FFmpeg does the conversion OK but it reports "Unsupported sample rate".
I've discussed this on the FFmpeg-users mailing list.

actually this is our muxer bug.

Summary: When encoding to mp3 MPEG-2 layer III and MPEG-2.5 layer III FFmpeg gives error report.MP3 muxer should support writing Xing header for all MP3 sample rates.
Type: defectenhancement

The warning has been clarified. This is not an error but only a warning that means no Xing header has been written (which I personally don't consider much of a loss).
I change this to an enhancement request.

Is this still reproducible?

Replying to cehoyos:

Is this still reproducible?

Hi
No, it's not reproducible now.
The "Unsupported sample rate" error message has gone. ;-)

Looks like it has been fixed in git.
