Bill Crockett sent me this tip. I don't know if this is already well known or not, but thought I'd post it here in case it is useful to someone. Bill's message follows:
"Research on the web indicated that VirtualDub could encode at higher audio rates if Media player 10 was installed. I was leery of installing more DRM, so I obtained a new I3codecp.acm from another source.
I found that by renaming the current I3codeca.acm (old-I3codeca.acm) and copying the Newer version I3codecp.acm into Windows\system32 and renaming it to I3codeca.acm works to provide up to 320Kbps MP3 encoding within VirtualDub and does not seem to cause any problems.
Sure beats downloading some dubious updates and/or doing some registry changes."
