| 16 | <h1>Decoding</h1> |
|---|
| 17 | <p>Libogg contains a set of functions used in the decoding process. |
|---|
| 18 | <p> |
|---|
| 19 | All the <b>libogg</b> specific functions are declared in "ogg/ogg.h". |
|---|
| 20 | <p> |
|---|
| 21 | <p>Decoding is based around the ogg synchronization layer. The <a href="ogg_sync_state.html">ogg_sync_state</a> struct coordinates between incoming data and the decoder. We read data into the synchronization layer, submit the data to the stream, and output raw packets to the decoder. |
|---|
| 22 | <p>Decoding through the Ogg layer follows a specific logical sequence. A read loop follows these logical steps: |
|---|
| 23 | <ul> |
|---|
| 24 | <li>Expose a buffer using <a href="ogg_sync_buffer.html">ogg_sync_buffer()</a>. |
|---|
| 25 | <li>Read data into the buffer, using fread() or a similar function. |
|---|
| 26 | <li>Call <a href="ogg_sync_wrote.html">ogg_sync_wrote()</a> to tell the synchronization layer how many bytes you wrote into the buffer. |
|---|
| 27 | <li>Write out the data using <a href="ogg_sync_pageout.html">ogg_sync_pageout</a>. |
|---|
| 28 | <li>Submit the completed page to the streaming layer with <a href="ogg_stream_pagein.html">ogg_stream_pagein</a>. |
|---|
| 29 | <li>Output a packet of data to the codec-specific decoding layer using <a href="ogg_stream_packetout.html">ogg_stream_packetout</a>. |
|---|
| 30 | </ul> |
|---|
| 31 | <p>In practice, streams are more complex, and Ogg also must handle headers, incomplete or dropped pages, and other errors in input. |
