cannam@86 16 <h1>Decoding</h1>
cannam@86 17 <p>Libogg contains a set of functions used in the decoding process.
cannam@86 18 <p>
cannam@86 19 All the <b>libogg</b> specific functions are declared in "ogg/ogg.h".
cannam@86 20 <p>
cannam@86 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.
cannam@86 22 <p>Decoding through the Ogg layer follows a specific logical sequence. A read loop follows these logical steps:
cannam@86 23 <ul>
cannam@86 24 <li>Expose a buffer using <a href="ogg_sync_buffer.html">ogg_sync_buffer()</a>.
cannam@86 25 <li>Read data into the buffer, using fread() or a similar function.
cannam@86 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.
cannam@86 27 <li>Write out the data using <a href="ogg_sync_pageout.html">ogg_sync_pageout</a>.
cannam@86 28 <li>Submit the completed page to the streaming layer with <a href="ogg_stream_pagein.html">ogg_stream_pagein</a>.
cannam@86 29 <li>Output a packet of data to the codec-specific decoding layer using <a href="ogg_stream_packetout.html">ogg_stream_packetout</a>.
cannam@86 30 </ul>
cannam@86 31 <p>In practice, streams are more complex, and Ogg also must handle headers, incomplete or dropped pages, and other errors in input.
