Thanks id, Solved! Need help with Ogg Vorbis -q settings]

Ok I tried this and it works for me.
-o %m -a %a -l %d -t %n -d %y -G %g -q 5 %w
The main thing you helped with was to inform me about removing the %b 
part.  At first I tried just removing the -b and of course that didn't 
work for me, it was probably confusing to oggenc to get -q 5 %b.  So 
thanks to id every thing works now.

I *believe* that grip passes the bitrate to the %b variable, and that
it's sort of a "one or the other" setting with the -b and -q switches to
oggenc.

Perhaps this is what you're looking for?

-o %m -a %a -l %d -t %n -d %y -G %g -q 5 %w

... and just remove the "-b %b" completely, and hard-code the -q value
of 5 (or whatever you like) so oggenc can take advantage of the
variable-bitrate encoding.

I'm sure someone else can correct me or verify this is correct.
