Re: Different results in decodeAudioData?

HI Peter,

I'm not sure what you mean by "set the loop points" since MP3 loop points aren't decoded into an AudioBuffer by Web Audio as far as I'm aware.

In looping externally loaded samples I've found it best to encode loop points in a separate file of metadata that is read in its own XHR, rather than attempting to load loop points into the browser as part of the MP3 file (which I've never tried to make work).

Is this just how it is, and will my method therefor not work crossbrowser (without me having to set those looppoints for each brower+version)?
