Rillian,
        I think I had tried everything you've said (except the
        serial number, but now I did). In truth, I believe to
        have tried any arrangement possible of (packetin,
        pageout, flush) for every ogg_packet, and that the
        updated current code on

http://opensvn.csie.org/ribamar/projects/streaming/cvaenc.c
        is likely to be writing out the things correctly;
        However...

        $ theora/examples/dump_video a.ogg
        YUV4MPEG2 W0 H0 F0:0 Ip A0:0
        Done.

        Maybe the ogg_packets are corrupted. I've isolated the
        theora_decode_init segmentation fault in this file
        http://opensvn.csie.org/ribamar/projects/streaming/decode_init.c
        , which tries to encode and decode only the headers. Any
        light?

Thanks,
Riba
