I used ffmpeg to transcode some files into new format and with certain parameters. After transcoding, I found some output file's metadata is not what I expected, the output value is not the same with I set in the cmd line.
Before transcoding I check the media info of the inputfile:
ffmpeg -i dz2015082000010.mpg

Next, transcoding with the cmd line:
ffmpeg -i dz2015082000010.mpg -vcodec libx264 -b:v 4000k -s 1920x1080 -r 25 -g 25 -vprofile main -acodec aac -strict -2 -b:a 128k -ac 2 -ar 44100 -y output.ts
After transcoding, I check the media info of the output file:
ffmpeg -i output.ts

I don't know why the audio bitrate is changed to 4 kb/s after transcoding, I set the value with -b:a 128k before, anybody can help me? BTW, the output file sounds all right.
