Because the Musepack format use a "little-endian" bitstream, which means
that both you ended up doing bswap a few times and would waste 3 bytes
per frame and in general is idiotic. Also due to the way the libmpcdec
code worked then, this is converted to a proper bitstream in the
demuxer. Unfortunately while they optimized libmpcdec they also broke
the function that MPlayer uses, so that MPlayer does not work with
recent libmpcdec versions anyway...
The extradata is likely to be different, too, btw.
