Bug#797965: bs1770gain somehow "destroys" gapless playback on (at least) lame encoded MP3s

[Christoph Anton Mitterer <calestyo@scientia.net>]

Any further ideas on this?

I've just checked again with the current ffmpeg/bs1770gain versions
from sid... and still, the gapless playback of MP3s is broken when
files are processed with --overwrite.

It does seem to work when not using --overwrite mode (but -a -o
dir),... but that's no big surprise as files are decoded to flac (which
is per se gapless), but this is probably not what most people want.


Seems a bit as if something is going wrong when the mp3 stream is
remuxed or stored again.


With the unfortunate removal of python-rgain, bs1770gain seems to be
the only remaining replaygain tool in Debian... so it would be really
nice if ffmpeg could be made no breaking the output files :-)


Cheers,
Chris.
