Sadly I didn't see your mailings until now.  The code is a huge mess, but quite functional on several portable mp3 players.  I converted the MDCT/FFT to fixed point in a very similar way as above, and got very good results (typically 15 bits identical to the fp version) and good playback (needs about 40MHz on my iPod).  Please feel free to take a look at my code:http://svn.rockbox.org/viewvc.cgi/trunk/apps/codecs/libwma/?pathrev=14307Though once again, the code is extremely messy, and I'm still tracking down a handful of remaining bugs.
