[CELT-dev] Artifacts in One Channel of Stereo C55x Implementation

[Bob Bang]

Yes, the integer overflow was my first thought as well. I tested the the
code on a PC with the "celtenc" and "celtdec" exe's.  I assume if I
configured the compilation with "--enable-fixed-point" that the behavior
would manifest itself. It did not, so it may be an issue specific to the
DSP. I can try to track this down, or I may upgrade the CELT revision. What
revision contains the newer constraint on frame size? (The prime factors of
2,3 & 5) My system is quite defined on a 100 sample frame size so obviously
that newer constraint won't work.

Also, in debugging my system I have seen that for a static frame input to
the encoder, I see the exact same encoded buffer output , byte for byte,
every call. Is this expected behavior? Is there no state information passed
along to the decoder in the compressed buffer? So basically, for every input
X[n], there is a defined output Y[n]?

thanks for getting back to me, I appreciate the help and love what you're
doing here.
