Well, it works in the way it is supposed to work (I guess), but not in a way
I want it to work. In case of WB it maps passed value to one of
SpeexSBMode::submodes elements, which are SpeexSubmode. And then
it just return value of corresponding SpeexSubmode::bits_per_frame.
As far as I understand how Speex is working it is only number of
bits in WB part of frame, and I have to retrive number of bits in NB part
of frame and then summ them up. But mapping of quality values to
NB/WB submode pairs are hidden inside libspeex and is not accessible
from API. Am I correct?
