You should apply a 16 Hz lowpass filter for DC removal. Note that lowest organ note has 16.3Hz. Did you hear tones under 16Hz? Did you have speakerboxes that you will give these low frequencies? I want to made sub-woofer with 16-30Hz range for my home stereo, but no lower. Well. I think you're

I think the only way is to find every frame, and analyse the header. It will give you the frame length with the formula mentionned earlier (sample_per_frame/sampling_frequency). Otherwise, you'll be missing the VBR aspect of files (unless you can get the 'real' bit rate). - Original

BIT_RATE = 1 means free format. This seems kinda confusing -- why use 1 to indicate free when MPEG uses 0? 0 is for 'reserved' (I'm not responsible of this part of the code). I've checked the file in hexadecimal, and sometimes I get frame header at 202 bytes from the previous instead
