Windows - Encspot.

Linux - ?

I think I have a nice amount of XING MP3s on here at the moment ohmy.gif , so I'd like to know if there's a Linux MP3 analyser like Encspot for windows so I can check. Thanks smile.gif

How about using MP3x?

Hmmm.. I looked at the screenshots, does it tell you what encoder was used? All it seems to say is the bitrate, KHz, and stereo mode.

I think you can tell Xing-encoded mp3s from other mp3s with MP3x.
IIRC Xing encoders never use short blocks, so just check out their block types.

Or you may be able to compile mp3guessenc sources for Linux.

I'm going to try to get WINE set up with encspot. Nothin' beats the best. biggrin.gif

mp3guessenc works fine under linux. you should give it try. i did read in the past that encspot uses the code for the encoder detection from mp3guessenc but not shure at the moment. i tried mp3guessenc on a xing file:

CODE
First frame found at 0

File size : 6830706 bytes
Length : 426.919 seconds
128kbit, 16343frames
44100Hz Joint stereo
Error protection : no
Copyrighted : no
Original : yes
emphasis : none

0 simple stereo frames
410 intensity stereo frames
15933 intensity and mid-side stereo frames

long block granules : 65372
short block granules : 0
mixed block granules : 0

padding is used
scalefac_scale is used
max reservoir : 511

128 kbps frames : 16343(100%)

0 header errors

Maybe this file is encoded by Xing (very old)

It was originally based on mp3guessenc, but the detection routines have been completely rewritten since and it now holds very few resemblances to the mp3guessenc routines.
