Ok, I did the test myself with your 20-20000logsweep. What I found:
LAME -b256 -mj -h : perfect up to 20kHz, both graph and sound
LAME -b256 -ms -h : perfect up to 20kHz, both graph and sound
LAME -V1 -b128 -mj -h : dB's drop after 15kHz instead of 20, but
_sounds ok_.
LAME -V1 -b256 -B256 -mj -h : indeed _audible_ chirp at the end of the
sweep ("encoding glitch") - nice catch
LAME -V1 -b256 -B256 -ms -h : indeed _audible_ chirp at the end of the
sweep ("encoding glitch") - nice catch
LAME -V1 -b256 -mj -h : indeed _audible_ chirp at the end of the
sweep ("encoding glitch")
LAME -V1 -b224 -B224 -mj -h : indeed _audible_ chirp at the end of the
sweep ("encoding glitch")
LAME -V1 -b192 -B192 -mj -h : indeed _audible_ chirp at the end of the
sweep ("encoding glitch")
LAME -V1 -b160 -B160 -mj -h : indeed _audible_ chirp at the end of the
sweep ("encoding glitch")
LAME -V1 -b128 -B128 -mj -h : indeed _audible_ chirp at the end of the
sweep ("encoding glitch")
So my conclusion: CBR ok, VBR -bX -BX _has_ glitch, -V1 -b128 = no
audible difference, no glitch.
Thus, bug in Lame VBR if minimum bitrate = maximum bitrate, but no
general VBR flaw.
btw MT: lol about the "LAME3.82..." padding bits :)
