[Speex-dev] Decoding only a certain frame results in different values than when decoding the entire file

[Hermann Weber]

I found out something:

The more frames I decode before the frame that I actually want to 
decode, the better the quality becomes.
For example when I basically want to decode frame #100, I read frame #80 
to #100, and then frame 100 has the quality that I need.

Why? Is there any information on this behaviour?

Thank you.
Hermann
