Detecting lossy encodes
...u'll be doing that anyway, just using libFLAC to decode it first. With all lossless encoding, we can be 100% sure that the uncompressed audio that we get out was the same as what went in, so only checking a FLAC file limits any tool to only working with FLAC. There's one for Windows called EncSpot, and I just don't remember the names of any of the others (but there are others). I'd suggest grabbing as many of these as possible and especially those with source code available, before reinventing the wheel. Just as home taping (and vinyl bootlegging) resulted in many generations of cop...

Idea to possibly improve flac?
Cool, thanks for all the great comments. I think we agree now on that the "find mp3 before encoding" feature would not be a good idea to implement in the flac core. As Brian pointed out, it might be a better idea to create a program that automatically checks if a flac might have been an mp3 source. My first suggestion was to use FFT, because I know that 128kbps mp3 have a low-pass
