Naoki,
Great stuff. I have a couple of questions/feature suggestions
1) (easy to implement) could the ID3 title formatting be customizable like
with nitrane? At the moment it's fixed on %1 - %2 whereas I like the album
title to be in there too (e.g. [%1: %3] %2.
2) (possibly more difficult) I've tried the 'Gapless' output plugin for
Winamp because several of my CDs have audio that runs accross track
boundaries. My experience has generally been that they don't work terribly
well. They join the decoded tracks up rather naively. For some reason if you
encode a 100-sample waveform to MP3, and then decode it, you normally get
1400 or so samples back out, of which the first 1320 or so are normally
silence. The gapless plugin leaves this silence in the output waveform so
you still get an (albeit short) click. Would it be feasible to make an
option in mpg123 to remove these silent samples so that the gapless plugin
would do a better job?
Thanks
Matthew

Hi,
I made a patch to fix some problems of mpglib. And, I updated
in_mpg123 plugin.
Now, maximum differences of outputs of mpglib decoder and
l3dec 2.60 is 1 for each sample, as far as I tested.
And, it seems that output of this plugin is more accurate than
l3dec. See

By the way,
>(and of course audio equipment, especially sound card in your PC)
I recommend getting good headphones rather than a good sound card.
