Jan 17, 2018 at 7:55 comment added Anonymous There're a number of websites showing this information, but the best explanation I found is this one mp3-tech.org/programmer/docs/mp3_theory.pdf. I suspect it uses N-1 frames dropping last frame, thinking that 26 ms is not actually much audible and does not affect quality of listening. Why? this is good question to the developers of the Audacity. Could be feature or bug :)
Jan 17, 2018 at 6:52 comment added Igor Liferenko For some reason audacity does not show second frame: If only the first frame is used, it is shown with correct duration. If two frames are used, the same duration (~26.122 ms) is used, and if N frames are used (N>2), total duration is 26.122*(N-1). What may be the cause of this? Where can one find the description of this headers byte-by-byte?
