LAME DLL with EAC - Compression Options Question

When using LAME DLL with EAC, in the Compression Options/Waveform/Sample Format pull down menu, what's the difference between "Preset CBR 192 kBit/s" and "192 kBit/s 44100 Hz Stereo" and also what's the difference between "Use VBR quality" and Use VBR average bitrate?"

Also I noticed when using "Preset Standard" the VBR Quality number doesn't make any difference in the size of the file. For what Sample Format settings does this "quality number" have an effect?

I can't remember off the top of my head but the answer is in the LAME 3.97b2 preset sticky thread at www.hydrogenaudio.org MP3 Tech
