Yo,

As Romain said there might be different reasons. The first one is that
libmad (if it's a MP3) can't read the file, in which case we can't do
anything. Another possibility is that libmad reads it weirdly. For
example we've seen mad starting to play a file as stereo but suddenly
output mono frames. For now the policy is to reject such situations,
i.e. abort the playing of that file. As a result it is sometimes the
case that liquidsoap is more picky than other players. Usually it
indicates a borderline situation which you can fix by re-encoding your
file.

If you hear glitches, I'd imagine you're in the first situation, i.e.
libmad goes nuts (not that it's its fault, the MP3 format is a mess)
and we might not have a way to distinguish it from normal behaviors.

You can play just that file through a
clock(sync=false,output.dummy(single(FILE))) to reproduce. Also, see
what "liquidsoap -r FILE" says.

HTH,
