Hello, mp3encoder! How are you?
Video codecs (DivX) could encode VBR stream in multiple passes: on
first pass it collect statistic about each frame, and on second
pass. So, if after ``hard'' frame will be ``hardest'' frame, it will
uses less bits for ``hard'' frame.
MP3 encoder also have VBR/ABR mode. But it uses ``bit reservoir''.
So, it use information only about PAST of signal.
May be in some case will be useful to make 2-pass encoding? For
example, (very rough example, of course), if second half of track is
SILENCE, we could use DOUBLED average bitrate for first half. And
now for first half will be used bitrate about average one.
