You can try this patch for tiny_psnr, I'm using it in my experiments with
audio decoding. See
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.ffmpeg.devel/37796/focus=38052
and
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.ffmpeg.devel/74535/
Don't know if it helps you, but I find it quite useful. For example, ffvorbis
decoder produces inverted output and standard tiny_psnr can't be used to
compare it with libvorbis output (it just can't see anything common in the
files and reports a horrible PSNR with the numbers similar to what you got).
