(Mind, a running average wouldn't be that hard, surely? Alternatively, LAME could go back and re-encode the first frame of a VBR MP3 in the most representative bitrate possible, so that at least those players which derive their length estimate from the first frame and never update it can get a little closer.) _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
