FA-49351 / PCM sample encoding / Open access

Pcm channel predictor: reset bank · case 01

A channel reset discards transmitted nonzero seeds.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 8 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

A channel reset discards transmitted nonzero seeds.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use the stated conversion contract at reset bank.

Unsuccessful approach: Reversing seed order seeds the wrong physical channels.

Case contract

Encode frame-major PCM residuals with independent per-channel amplitude predictors and frame-index resets; preserve residual frame shape.

Why this case matters

Offline PCM interchange uses these exact bounded packet and sample representation decisions.

Verification & scope

Stipulated finite model; no claim of hardware timing or full file-format conformance. This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
