Thank you for your explanations. I contacted the manufacturer of the broadcast system that refuses the lame files. They say that the problem is caused by an empty frame at the beginning of the files. The first 835 byte are 0x00, followed by valid frames. This seems to be a bug/feature in lame 3.92-alpha, which was (by mistake) used by me in that case. The latest version of lame does the job right.
