[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] mp3dec: Fix VBR bit rate parsing

[Alexander Kojevnikov]

Commit 6776a8f[0] introduced a regression in calculation[1] of the bit
rate of VBR streams. Instead of keeping the bit rate from the Xiph
tag, it now overrides it during parsing with the bit rate from one of
the frames.

Attached patch should fix it. It relies on the assumption[2] that the
Xiph/Info tag has "Xiph" id string for VBR streams and "Info" for CBR.

To reproduce, take any VBR MP3 file and run this code on it:

    int main()
    {
        AVFormatContext *format_context = NULL;
        unsigned int i;

        av_register_all();
        avformat_open_input(&format_context, "test.mp3", NULL, NULL);
        avformat_find_stream_info(format_context, NULL);

        for (i = 0; i < format_context->nb_streams; i++) {
            if (format_context->streams[i]->codec->codec_type ==
AVMEDIA_TYPE_AUDIO) {
                AVCodecContext *codec_context =
format_context->streams[i]->codec;
                printf("bit_rate: %d\n", codec_context->bit_rate);
            }
        }

        return 0;
    }
