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>

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.

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>
