DRM Removal for Movies Bit rate difference

[kakkalla]

Hi all.

When converting a music video, the original Apple Music file has a bit rate of 256 kbps.

When I convert the video and place it in my iTunes library, the bitrate shows 122 kbps.

Why is this?

I got the same problem with a Television iTunes File.
Love to have the same Bitrate Video & Music aswel!

From the FAQ.
Q: What kind of format is output after removing DRM?
A: For movies, M4V format, it's lossless and same as source, and will also keep the AC-3 audio, cc subtitles etc.
For Music, M4A format, it's lossy compress.
