Hello. I have encoded a wav to a mp3. But when decoding it back, the wav is slightly bigger as the original.
for example: $ ls -l -rw-r--r-- 1 kristian adlib 4079698 Jun 7 14:24 H-diff.mp3 -rw-r--r-- 1 kristian adlib 44969704 Jun 7 15:03 H-diff.wav -rw-r--r-- 1 kristian adlib 44965580 Jun 5 13:58 H-src.wav I read in the lame-FAQ that this is the intended behaviour. (Cause of some technical reason I don't understand yet.) Are there some differences between all the decoders out there ? I'm currently writing a program that compares wav's and saves the differences to another file. So it's reasonable bad having an extra chunk of bytes at the beginning of the data in the wav-file. Is there any specification how to ignore these extra bytes or to know the size of this extra chunk ? (It's no problem ignoring extra bytes at the end of the wave...) Thank you ! *Kristian :...
