The details for audio and video are being reported separately. You're looking
at the audio bitrate.

That may happen one day. Why it isn't there is to do with how clicking is
handled: xine-lib gives no notification of whether it's handled the click, so
gxine can't know whether to ignore or process a double-click; and I think
that knowing when to change the pointer shape would help. (Consider DVD
menus.)

(Hmm. Somebody's not overridden the vendor name. Must have words with certain
people about that...)
