The only requirement is that the identification header ends on a 
page boundary (meaning that the comment header must begin on a fresh 
page) and that the setup header ends on a page boundary (meaning 
that the first audio packet must begin on a fresh page). The headers 
must also be written in this order: identification, comment, setup.

<p>You should also consider, that there is no limit on the length of 
the comment header, and that you may have to split it over more than 
two Ogg pages.
