currentlly i'm working on sound implementation on our upcoming title and one "feature" are loopable mp3 sounds. but since the mp3 format is not perfect (frame overlapping?) for looping, i'm getting glitches between end and start. any ideas/tips on how to cancel these nasties or to minimize them? i'm using miles api. one solution would be to manually/hardcode set the correct offsets, but that would require a kind of sound descriptor. not to mention extra work for sound designers. it's really not practical...

Why not switch to a format like Ogg that supports gapless playback?
