Hi, I understand the need for the extra samples at the beginning and end of the original file due to the MDCT, etc.
However, I see that the 'lame' decoder is actually stripping off the extra samples after decoding MP3 back to Wav to achieve time coherency. How does it know how many samples to strip off? Different encoders can add varying start padding during the WAV-to-MP3 process. Is this strip length hardcoded into the 'lame' decoder? I saw on this mailing list some indication that can be information stored in the MP3 header. Is this used here? Also, the tail padding is not stripped yet, right?
