This function works +similarly to reading from a normal file using <tt>read()</tt>.<p> + +However, a few differences are worth noting: + +<h2>multiple stream links</h2> + +A Vorbis stream may consist of multiple sections (called links) that +encode differing numbers of channels or sample rates. It is vitally +important to pay attention to the link numbers returned by <a +href="ov_read.html">ov_read</a> and handle audio changes that may +occur at link boundaries. Such multi-section files do exist in the +wild and are not merely a specification curiosity. + +<h2>returned data amount</h2> + +<a href="ov_read.html">ov_read</a> does not attempt to completely fill +a large, passed in data buffer; it merely guarantees that the passed +back data does not overflow the passed in buffer size. Large buffers +may be filled by iteratively looping over calls to <a +href="ov_read.html">ov_read</a> (incrementing the buffer pointer) +until the original buffer is filled. + +<h2>file cursor position</h2> + +Vorbis files do not necessarily start at a sample number or time offset +of zero. Do not be surprised if a file begins at a positive offset of +several minutes or hours, such as would happen if a large stream (such +as a concert recording) is chopped into multiple seperate files. + +<p> +<table border=1 color=black width=50% cellspacing=0 cellpadding=7> +<tr bgcolor=#cccccc> + <td><b>function</b></td> + <td><b>purpose</b></td> +</tr> +<tr valign=top> + <td><a href="ov_read.html">ov_read</a></td> + <td>This function makes up the main chunk of a decode loop.
