This is perfectly well supported at the codec level without requiring
any work at the container/transport level. Any decoder will handle this
use case fine, although doing the actual encoding might require some
custom work. In the case of Ogg, you can either hack the opusenc to
handle it or you can encode each part separately and concatenate the
resulting files (chaining).
