I uploaded one here: http://tmarki.com/ZSS_Fi_MasterLink.mp3

It was encoded by Lame CLI from this source:
http://noproblo.dayjo.org/ZeldaSounds/ZSS/ZSS_Fi_MasterLink.wav

If I transcode it with the Lame CLI everything is fine, so I must be doing
something wrong in my code... I'm using a 8kB buffer for the MP3 data
(because lame_encode_flush recommends buffers size > 7200 bytes).

My encoding loop goes like this:

int readloc = fread(glob_mp3_buffer, sizeof(unsigned char), MP3_SIZE,
glob_mp3_in);
if (readloc) {
    int read2 = 0;
    read2 = hip_decode_headers(glob_hipt, glob_mp3_buffer, MP3_SIZE,
glob_pcm_buffer1, glob_pcm_buffer2, &glob_mp3data);
    // snipped code handling mp3 header
    if (read2) { // this is 0 on the first pass for very small files
        int coded = lame_encode_buffer(glob_lame, glob_pcm_buffer1,
glob_pcm_buffer2, read2, glob_mp3_outbuffer, PCM_SIZE);
        if (coded > 0) {
            glob_write += fwrite (glob_mp3_outbuffer, 1, coded,
glob_mp3_out);
        }
    }
}

The finishing/flushing part:

int coded = lame_encode_flush(glob_lame,glob_mp3_outbuffer, MP3_SIZE);
if (coded > 0) {
    glob_write += fwrite (glob_mp3_outbuffer, 1, coded, glob_mp3_out);
}
hip_decode_exit(glob_hipt);
lame_close(glob_lame);

It works fine if the file is larger than MP3_SIZE (=8k).

Thanks
