(BTW, the right column in your illustration should not exist.There is officially no KB at 1000 bytes, or mega at 1000000. The industry of the CD-R, DVD-R, BD-R had adopted these wrong values for commercial reasons only. But it's a lie, and no program should use these values.)
The picture was just random to get the idea.

yup, byte to GB is a but a mess in compute land
CD 700 = 734.000.000Bytes (700MB)
dvd-r 4.7 = 4.700.000.000Bytes (4.5GB)
16GB flashdisk = 14.700.000.000Bytes (13.7GB)

Thats why I was after the real Bytes.
I just need to make a 1,024^2 compensation in BD3D2MK3D, no worries

BTW, I did just two very rapid tests on a small clip. The duration of the clip is 0:03:24, and the audio file size is 4788 KB. When I ask for a target file size of 300MB, the computed bitrate is 11571 kbps, and the final MKV size is exactly 300.098 MB. Not too bad!
If I ask for a final file size of 1000 MB with the same clip, the bitrate is 39006 and the final file size is 1001.361 MB. I agree that the bitrate is slightly too high, but only a little. I'm not sure I need to try to obtain a better value. Computing the overhead is extremely difficult, perhaps impossible. I can't guarantee extremely accurate results.

Its off by 0.1%, no need to change

Correct.

If you want a final file size of 15,000,000,000 bytes, you have to compute the right number of real MBs: 15,000,000,000/1024/1024 = approximately 14305 MB, not 15000 (and not 13969 neither).
You're correct. A 1024 to much
