OK... i found my craching bug... my buffer was not big enough to output to.
So what i need to know is what is the maximum possible size packet that
theora can output ?

Is there some rough guestimation formula i can use to find it based on
parameters... or failing that... just the maximum possible size... though
considering i think i read theora can handle 2mil pixel squared images... i
think an absolute max value is not really realistic...

Thanks,

Zen.
