[vorbis-dev] Vorbis RTP Internet Draft

[Phil Kerr]

This is certainly an option, but the IETF do seem to prefer this kind 
of data to be sent out-of-band hence the suggestion to use RTCP.

For implementation it allows for the main process to go into a simple 
loop and just decode the Vorbis stream, the control thread can take 
care of everything else.

But, are there any advantages in keeping this data in-band that we have 
not covered?
