I've done essentially the same test with FLAC, and sometimes you get a block or two of padding that is all zero. Since zero is ignored, and since all the non-zero blocks are identical, the difference there is meaningless. You could also pass your files through MD5 or SHA1, there are usually shell programs to calculate them in Unix like operating systems. -- Pat Farrell http://www.pfarrell.com/ _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
