Is there some time window over which it tries to meet this average?

Okay, so are CBR+quality equivalent to CBR+bit-rate or is there some psycho-
acustics that make them different?

What is the range of quality <float>?  0-10 like the int or 0.0-1.0?

Thanks for helping to clear this up for me, Jean-Marc.
