i.e., change 

  /* choose an encoding mode */
  /* (mode 0: 44kHz stereo uncoupled, roughly 128kbps VBR) */
  vi = &info_A;

to

  /* choose an encoding mode */
  /* (mode 0: 44kHz stereo uncoupled, roughly 128kbps VBR) */
  vi = &info_B;

? Okay, working on the encoder side... Monty, remember to define info_B,C,D,
etc. :)

(and why can't it be info_mode_0, info_mode_1, etc. to correspond with the
encoding mode? And is Vorbis going to be limited to 6 encoding modes?)
