To: Anonymous Monk,

Thanks for the suggestion and possible really interesting implementation to my code. While I was working with my code I came with another possible mistake that I trying to explain but for the moment not successfully. I noticed that the sync_safe process at the header:

$mp3_size = ($memory[0] & 0xFF) |
    (( $memory[1] & 0xFF ) << 7) |
    (( $memory[2] & 0xFF ) << 14) |
    (( $memory[3] & 0xFF ) << 21);

If I do print Dumper(@memory); before the sync_safe process, it will print out:

$VAR1 = 0;
$VAR2 = 0;
$VAR3 = 5;
$VAR4 = 59;

After the sync_safe process if I do print Dumper(@memory); again, it will print out:

$VAR1 = 123813888;

I am curious, I know that the sync_safe process is shifting 7 bits to the left of eac byte. So no I am comfused is it operating correctly? or am I doing something wrong?

Maybe I am missing something really basic here and this is the reason that I do not understand. Sorry for asking too many questions but since I am going through the learning curve process I have so many queries that I can not find information that will provide me a clear answer.

Thank you again for your time and effort.
