warning about the jointstereo setting - it changes your output to mono (just coming out of both speakers but without left/right seperation..)

jointstereo=2 does true joint stereo (with seperation) - jointstereo=0 means that it really pipes left channel to left / right channel to right (without combining/saving bandwidth on the common elements..)

I'm experimenting with different values right now.. currently listening with jointstereo=0 bitrate and maxbitrate=128 (just picked a random number) - seems to sound great.. Would love for others to try higher bitrate settings and see what happens...

edit - maxbitreate/bitrate = 160 was giving me quite a bit of skipping.. trying jointstereo=2 max/bit = 128 again.. seems to be the sweet spot? Sounds great.. Would love to hear other people's opinions..

BTW - if it makes a difference - i'm using coreplayer for my music.. (uses less battery then windows media player, but works w/ remote/library/etc...
