While writing my decoder, I posted some of the data structures I've read from 
the first 320x240.ogg example file, and which match the numbers read by the 
dump-video program, to the theora mailing list.  I can repost them here if 
you'd like to include them in a future appendix.

Section 6.4.3 of the specification (Computing a Quantization Matrix) says:

1. Assign qri the index of a quant range such that

qi >= summation from qrj=0 to qri-1 (QRSIZES[qti][pli ][qrj ])

and

qi <= summation from qrj=0 to qri (QRSIZES[qti ][pli ][qrj ])



How do I determine which qri to select so that qi will fall between the 
specified value range?  Or will a valid Theora file always result in a summation 
that automatically satisfies that requirement, regardless of which qri I 
select?
