From what you describe, the first thing that comes to mind are timestamps.
If you resample with timestamps that mismatch the exact values expected from
the sample rate. You will have different resuls when the packet size is changed.
Its the same data but at a different point in time and thats different then.

I have too many things to do though so i cant really look into this.

thx
