[Icecast] Truncated Short Samples?

[Todd Goodman]

I'm using Icecast 1.3.10 and Ices 0.3.

I use a perl module to pick the playlist and play short (about two to
five seconds) mp3s in between other songs.

I've been getting those mp3s clipped off at the end when listening with
XMMS on a RedHat system (with WinAmp on a Windows 2000 system, sometimes
I don't hear the clips at all and sometimes I hear the whole thing???)

It seems to clip about a second.  Now strangely enough, it used to
always clip the end, but after restarting icecast and ices this morning
it is now clipping the beginning of them!

Has anyone experienced anything similar or know where to look to try to
figure out what's going on?

Thanks,

Todd
