Couldn't it be so that user can (with some command) determine if he wants to remove the samples or not (or specify the number of samples he wants to remove)? When you decode mp3's made by other encoder (or older version of Lame perhaps), the delay is different... Caster It can't be solved

When you want to burn audio cd from this, just join these mp3's together (there's no tool for this yet, you have to cut the possible TAGs from the files with some TAG program and then join with copy file1 + file2 musiCutter 0.5 will have this join function (will be released in a few

It's not the fade that is the problem, it's the mdct aliasing. I disagree. There may be some problems created by the *filterbank*, but the only attenuantion caused by the MDCT will be the first 96 samples. Here's an example: [...SNIP...] granule 2 is the first granule that is

What I suggest to compensate for this 'mp3 lapse': 1- (preferable): first encode the stream, then insert precise start- and end-point into Info header (like extension to Xing VBR one). Then a tool aquainted with this extended header would be able to do a very accurate "--decode" (hint
