Stream table
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
The stream table chain always starts in cluster 2.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
Otherwise, it follows normal chaining.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
The stream table consists of 16-byte entries:
\end_layout
\begin_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
The first 8 bytes of entry give big-endian beginning position of stream
in units of 1/48000 s.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
The next 4 bytes of entry give big-endian beginning cluster for control
data.
0 here marks the entry as not present.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
The last 4 bytes of entry give big-endian beginning cluster for codec data.
\end_layout
\end_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
Stream table clusters are normal clusters, following normal chaining.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
The stream begnning position is not guarenteed unique.
There can be multiple streams with the same starting position in the file.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Subsection
Stream control data
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
The stream control data consists of entries 4 bytes each:
\end_layout
\begin_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
The first 2 bytes of entry gives big-endian length of packet
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
The next byte of entry gives audio length of packet in units of 1/400 s.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
The last byte is control byte.
\end_layout
\begin_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
0 means this entry is not present and the control data ends.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
1 is valid control entry.
\end_layout
\end_deeper
\end_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
The stream control data can also end by running into end of the readable
chain.
\end_layout
\begin_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
This happens if there happens to be exact multiple of 2048 packets in stream
and number of packets is nonzero.
\end_layout
\end_deeper
\begin_layout Itemize
These clusters follow normal chaining.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Subsection
Stream codec data
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
Stream codec data consists of raw Opus data packets packed back to back
with nothing in between.
\end_layout
\begin_layout Itemize
Warning: Due to internal limitations, this data must reside in the first
65536 superclusters (that is, the first 1TB of the file).
