Commit2b3e9bbfb5caused problems for a certain API user: https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=537725 https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=542032 The problem seems rather arbitrary, because if there's junk, anything can happen. In this case, the imperfect junk skipping just caused it to read different junk, from what I can see. We can improve the accuracy of junk detection by a lot by checking if 2 consecutive frames use the same configuration. While in theory it might be completely fine for the 1st frame to have a different format than the 2nd frame, it's exceedingly unlikely, and I can't think of a legitimate use-case. This is approximately the same mpg123 does for junk skipping. The set of compared header bits is the same as the libavcodec mp3 parser uses for similar purposes. (cherry picked from commitde1b1a7da9)
