I'd like to merge all the 3 headers in one since the comment packet
should be always empty or at least about 2 order lesser than the
codebook size. That way should simplify the transmission logic a bit and
could make sense since codebook and setup should change together quite
often. I'm a bit afraid about the comment changes, since they could be
abused and really don't belong to the vorbis audio stream (and thus
should be delivered with a different medium)
That way the metadata payload could be the same in the 3 possible medium
"families": inline sdp, in band and off band.
To sum up:
- Just use one packet for all metadata
- Use the same packet layout for every vector (inline, inband, offband)
- Limit what should stay in the comment packet
Please send me some comments.
