what ffplay issue?

Someone should review the filterbank and surrounding code.
either the code as is is the simplest (i doubt it) or it can be
simplified, such review would probably more concretely point at where it
can be improved
in that sense the rest of the code likely also should be properly reviewed
and with review here i mean by someone who understands the algorithms

also as a rule of thumb, if one transform uses a imdct the other likely
can be done based on a mdct

btw, theres quite a bit of copying and shuffling of data in this and i
doubt is unavoidable ...

iam interrested but i dont have the time.
also a small selfconstained test application that can test random pieces of
code against the correct code would be usefull

Incandescent light bulbs waste a lot of energy as heat so the EU forbids them.
Their replacement, compact fluorescent lamps, much more expensive, dont fit in
many old lamps, flicker, contain toxic mercury, produce a fraction of the light
that is claimed and in a unnatural spectrum rendering colors different than
in natural light. Ah and we now need to turn the heaters up more in winter to
compensate the lower wasted heat. Who wins? Not the environment, thats for sure
