Icecast - Sep 2024 - EZstream Stream Bit Rate Question

In /usr/share/doc/ezstream/examples/ezstream-full.xml there is a 
directive call stream_bitrate:


<stream_bitrate>16</stream_bitrate>


The example file is for Ogg Vorbis, so what does "16" mean? For MP3 
files, I want to indicate 128kbps. DO I just substitute the 16 with 128? 
I haven't found anything in available documentation to direct me.

I belive so, yes.

My reading of this is that these are informational fields which are used 
in stream listings (i.e. they don't actually make a technical difference, 
they only define what is shown in the stream listing).
