[CELT-dev] Seamless Looping

[Jean-Marc Valin]

Hi,

It's really hard to say what's going on without all the details, but it 
should be pretty easy for you to figure it out by looking at the signal 
at the sample level. CELT uses fixed frames with (in most modes) 128 
samples overlap, so it shouldn't be too confusing.
