I've not seen a bitrate managed vorbis stream yet.  They are all VBR.

That is exactly what I was suggesting.  DSP stackers allow DSP's to be
processed in the order you need.  In my case, however, I would use the new
DSP in the Winamp DSP/Effects and the OddCast DSP in the SQRSoft DSP area.

I will attempt to do this myself when I get time, but that may be never.

Ross.
