Certain MP3 files encoded with l3enc 0.99a stutter

Postby Sebastian Mares » 11 Nov 2008 11:09

I am currently conducting an MP3 listening test and some of the participants came across a problem with VLC and MPC when playing some MP3 files that I used as low anchor. The files were encoded using l3enc 0.99a and play perfectly fine in WMP, iTunes, Nero ShowTime or foobar2000. If you're interested, please download http://listeningtest.vanquickel.be/Sample03.zip and have a listen to Sample03_3.mp3.

MP3 decoding is done by FFmpeg, and sometime show issues with some variable bitrate files.

What is low anchor ?

The l3enc files are encoded with constant bitrate.
