Encoded size

—

Bitrate is the whole encoded stream; do not multiply it by channel count. Tags and container overhead are excluded.

Formula

Use S = bt/8000. b is the audio bitrate in kbps, t is duration in seconds, and S is decimal MB.

Estimate encoded audio size from total stream bitrate.

Worked example

Total encoded bitrate (kbps)
320
Duration (minutes)
5
Encoded size
12 MB

Scope and limitations

Bitrate is the whole encoded stream; do not multiply it by channel count. Tags and container overhead are excluded.

Inputs are checked for missing values and allowed ranges. A result outside the finite numeric range is not displayed. Rounding affects display, while the calculation uses the model’s numeric precision.

Check your units and assumptions before relying on a result. Changing a label does not convert a currency or physical unit.
