[vorbis-dev] Confusion with page_segments / segment_table

Thanks for your quick answer!

Where is that specified in the documentation, I can't seem to find it
anywhere?
My problem is, that I'm trying to read the comment. The first header just
before the
tag has the extra segment (< 255), but if the comment is spanned over, let
say 2 pages,
the next header does not have this extra segment. Is this always the case,
that the first
header has it, and the all following has not? If not, how do I determine
wether it has this extra segment.

Thanks again,

Thomsen
