[flac-dev] FLAC QUESTION

[Rafael Velasquez]

Hello, in fact :
this error(FLAC__STREAM_ENCODER_VERIFY_MISMATCH_IN_AUDIO_DAT) occurs when
the sample size is bigger than the exepected size in the encoder.

Now, can someone tell me how to model the signal, for example :
*using a Fixed linear predictor for the input signal ? *
