MDCT-stereo at 48kbps for STV produces severely distorted output with BASOP encoder
# Basic info <!--- Add commit SHA used to reproduce --> - Encoder (BASOP):00a01e81017d4bf459a5be1ab57491536f3b6c8a - Decoder (Float):311956f313e57b6dbe82612ab3b366dcd9f129ea The output for MDCT-stereo at 48kbps coding the stv stereo file with the BASOP encoder and decoding with the float decoder is severely distorted and in general very different from the float-float output. The difference of the two signals (float minus basop) can be seen below: ![Screenshot_2024-12-10_at_14.17.50](/uploads/8148e4466976669a517bcd25ec393285/Screenshot_2024-12-10_at_14.17.50.png) a main issue seems to be aliasing distortion, that is observed on the boarders of the frames e.g. (basop - float) ![Screenshot_2024-12-10_at_14.27.27](/uploads/4a25ab73f0f5baca0fd4ca782c66f53b/Screenshot_2024-12-10_at_14.27.27.png) with the original for reference: (float - float) ![Screenshot_2024-12-10_at_14.27.37](/uploads/598f5d1d359fe11099a124009ebc7c8c/Screenshot_2024-12-10_at_14.27.37.png) This is only an example snapshot. Issues like this can be seen and heard across the whole item. One source for these distortions could be the ITD. # Ways to reproduce {BASOP} ./IVAS_cod -stereo 48000 48 stvST48c.wav stvST48c_float_48k.192 {Float} ./IVS_dec stereo 48 stvST48c_float_48k.192 stvST48c_float_48k.dec.wav
