MP3Parser seek to 0

[Khamar Khan]

Hello Ravi,

As per the OpenCore2.05 release notes, " Modify MP3Parser to make seek to 0 a special case and do not use XING header for calculating file offset ".
http://groups.google.com/group/android-platform/browse_thread/thread/ccf6335028713f25/e28d0034dcaf9d54?lnk=gst&q=2.05+Release#e28d0034dcaf9d54

Could you please give some information on the above change, as In case of any extra bytes(unknown data) present in the beginning of a file, we need to seek to the "First Frame" position and should decode the mp3 header accordingly either XING or VBR.

Moreover i have come across a case where in some unknown bytes are present in the beginning and followed by XING Header with TOC information, due to the above change in 2.05OpenCore, it is not being recognized as a XING file and is constructing own TOC table which gives a problem for the seek operation.


Thanks
