Running Spotify Win 10 app from CMD, and using the --show-console switch, I can see in the log that the quality is 160kbps, despite the Streaming Quality is set to "Very High" (so should be 320kbps) in the preferences, and Volume normalization is turned off. Tried with many different songs.
Also would like to know if there is a full list of command-line switches available for Spotify.exe, as I could not find any.
Thanks a lot!
