16 <h1>ov_fopen</h1> | |
17 | |
18 <p><i>declared in "vorbis/vorbisfile.h";</i></p> | |
19 | |
20 <p>This is the simplest function used to open and initialize an OggVorbis_File | |
21 structure. It sets up all the related decoding structure. | |
22 <p>The first argument is a file path suitable | |
23 for passing to fopen(). <tt>vf</tt> should be a pointer to an empty | |
24 OggVorbis_File structure -- this is used for ALL the externally visible | |
25 libvorbisfile functions. Once this has been called, the same <a | |
26 href="OggVorbis_File.html">OggVorbis_File</a> struct should be passed | |
27 to all the libvorbisfile functions. | |
28 <p>The <tt>vf</tt> structure initialized using ov_fopen() must | |
29 eventually be cleaned using <a href="ov_clear.html">ov_clear()</a>. | |
30 | |
31 <p> | |
32 It is often useful to call <tt>ov_fopen()</tt> simply to determine | |
33 whether a given file is a Vorbis bitstream. If the <tt>ov_fopen()</tt> | |
34 call fails, then the file is either inaccessable (errno is set) or not | |
35 recognizable as Vorbis (errno unchanged). If the call succeeds but | |
36 the initialized <tt>vf</tt> structure will not be used, the | |
37 application is responsible for calling <a | |
38 href="ov_clear.html">ov_clear()</a> to clear the decoder's buffers and | |
39 close the file.<p> | |

64 <h3>Return Values</h3> | |
65 <blockquote> | |
66 <li>0 indicates success</li> | |
67 | |
68 <li>less than zero for failure:</li> | |
69 <ul> | |
70 <li>OV_EREAD - A read from media returned an error.</li> | |
71 <li>OV_ENOTVORBIS - Bitstream does not contain any Vorbis data.</li> | |
72 <li>OV_EVERSION - Vorbis version mismatch.</li> | |
73 <li>OV_EBADHEADER - Invalid Vorbis bitstream header.</li> | |
74 <li>OV_EFAULT - Internal logic fault; indicates a bug or heap/stack corruption.</li> | |
75 </ul> | |

79 <h3>Notes</h3> | |
80 <dl> | |
81 | |
82 <dt><b>[a] Threaded decode</b><p> | |
83 <dd>If your decoder is threaded, it is recommended that you NOT call | |
84 <tt>ov_open_callbacks()</tt> | |
85 in the main control thread--instead, call <tt>ov_open_callbacks()</tt> in your decode/playback | |
86 thread. This is important because <tt>ov_open_callbacks()</tt> may be a fairly time-consuming | |
87 call, given that the full structure of the file is determined at this point, | |
88 which may require reading large parts of the file under certain circumstances | |
89 (determining all the logical bitstreams in one physical bitstream, for | |
90 example). See <a href="threads.html">Thread Safety</a> for other information on using libvorbisfile with threads. | |
91 <p> | |
92 | |
93 <dt><b>[b] Mixed media streams</b><p> | |
94 <dd> | |
95 As of Vorbisfile release 1.2.0, Vorbisfile is able to access the | |
96 Vorbis content in mixed-media Ogg streams, not just Vorbis-only | |
97 streams. For example, Vorbisfile may be used to open and access the | |
98 audio from an Ogg stream consisting of Theora video and Vorbis audio. | |
99 Vorbisfile 1.2.0 decodes the first logical audio stream of each | |
100 physical stream section.<p> | |
101 | |
102 <dt><b>[c] Faster testing for Vorbis files</b><p> | |
103 <dd><a href="ov_test.html">ov_test()</a> and <a | |
104 href="ov_test_callbacks.html">ov_test_callbacks()</a> provide less | |
105 computationally expensive ways to test a file for Vorbisness, but | |
106 require more setup code.<p> | |
