[vorbis-dev] Ogg VEO Codec, video in an Ogg stream

I don't know if this is the right place to post this, but I ported a lossy
delta update video compression algorithm to use the Ogg stream
layer.  The algorithm was written several years ago in high school to
play video at about ~5 - 10 fps on their 33mhz 486 + turbo pascal machines
becase writing link list palendrome programs was too easy.

The codec does what it says (at least on an Intel Linux machine), but
isn't useful yet for realtime video decompression.  It can also use some
tweaks to get rid of some wasted bits in the output stream.  Right now, it
depends on GLib and the decoder program depends on Gtk+ for displaying the
frames.

The code plus a sample video is at:
