hmm, i don't exactly understand what you mean by "truncated by an amount
which seems to be proportional to the length of the file".
i just checked my two longest mp3s (approx 2.0 and 2.5 hours long), both
of them encoded with lame 3.92 --alt-preset standard. they play fine,
the only thing i could see was, that when i went to the end of the
files in xmms they still played for about 10-20 seconds though the
time-counter was at end of file. maybe this is the same thing you are
experiencing?
i also remember that i once encoded something quite long with an older
version of lame, i had trouble seeking in that file after about 1.5 hours
with xmms, but as i had already switched to lame 3.92 at that time and
the problem already had disappeared in 3.92, i did not really care
about seeking a bug in an old version ;)
which version of lame are you using and with which software are you
decoding your mp3s?
regards,
wernfried
