Thanks. That second file exhibits the same issue, but GStreamer reckons it's
slightly more likely to be an MP3 file in this case.

So there are three different issues:
1 - flac2mp3 probably writes the ID3 data incorrectly
2 - gstreamer's typefind misdetects the not-quite-correct MP3 as H.264
3 - ffmpeg's H.264 decoder crashes when given that MP3 data

I have now changed GStreamer to fix 2, which will solve your issue (both these
files will now properly be recognized as MP3). It is possible that other files
still fail, if they contain more extra filler data. Unfortunately, the more
leeway we give to the MP3 typefinder, the more likely it is we will detect
something else as MP3 if it looks similar.
