LAME version string

Hello!

1.
I am having some small problems with the detection of the LAME encoder... I have encoded a file using LAME 3.90.3 (the stable, non-modified version) and opened the MP3 file with a hex editor. The LAME header displays version "3.90.", while the padding shows "LAME 3.90.3". The problem is that I have several files where no padding was added, or where the padding was only "LAM".
How can I differentiate LAME 3.90 from 3.90.3?

2.
Is it possible to differentiate LAME 3.93 from 3.93.1?

3.
The LAME version string can also store "Beta" and "Alpha"... Can it also store other strings, such as "Pre-Release" or whatever?

Thanks in advance,
Sebastian Mares

You should check lame sources in ../libmp3lame/version.c and ../libmp3lame/version.h
I think you should find answers for 1) and 2)
Hope it helps

Alpha and Beta already mean pre-release.
