ffmpeg succeeds for broken FLAC about audioread HOT 3 OPEN

Aha, interesting. Any guesses what the "red flag" is that we should look for? "Error decoding stream...?"

from audioread.

A actually gave this a try and, despite all the warnings, it looks like FFmpeg (on my system, at least) successfully decodes the file. (I tested using the decode.py script included with audioread and it produced a .wav that sounds fine all the way through.)

This should be fine for fingerprinting, although I see that you might want to get a warning if you're checking for file integrity.

I guess this is due to the different ways flac file encoding is taken, one is lavf encoding and the other is libflac encoding. FFMPEG does not warn if LAVF is encoded, and FFMPEG will warn if it is encoded with libflac. Although both encoded files can be decoded correctly and do not affect the playback of the sound card, it is obvious that FFMPEG prefers to use LAVF encoding for FLAC files.
