Hello,
I'm working on an audio archiver utility for a non profit radio
station which uses liblame to archive 1 hour segments of audio at 3
different qualities. In addition I'm streaming one of the streams
using libshout.
One of the features I would like to implement is file overlap, where
the MP3 files overlap by 2 minutes, for convenience to listeners of
the archives when a radio show begins early or goes over the hour.
I was curious if anyone knows if it is possible to use a single
liblame MP3 encoder stream for file overlap and streaming. I see that
there is a lame_encode_flush_nogap which appears to be useful for
creating a clean MP3 boundary. Could this possibly be used at the
beginning and end of the overlap (2 minutes before and after the hour)
to start a new archive file and end the old one, respectively? Would
this freak out players which are listening to the continuous MP3 stream?
I suppose worst case is I have to use 3 MP3 encoders for the overlap
period, just wanted to try and optimize things.
Thanks for any information on this.
Best regards,
Josh Green
