HELP! MP3 - main data in following frames

2006-12-21 15:45:39

Hi all,
I have a question about mp3's framesize.

I am writing a program to reconstruct mp3's frames. Sometimes it happens that main data field is longer than available space (bit reservoir + available current frame's space). So the question is: is possible to store main data of current frame in the following frames, or we just can store data in bit reservoir of previous frames?

Please help me is very important!!

Thanks

Thomas

the main data begin pointer is a back pointer, so you can store audio data for the current frame only previous and current frames.
In your case you need a larger frame then.
