How odd. MP3Test is working just fine for me, doing exactly what the
OP wanted to do. I've found that I can't hear the errors on the lower
scoring files, but it's easy to figure out the point at which the errors are
a problem. I did get some false positives on spoken word tracks, but I
assume that's because they have a lot of natural gaps.
