Vorbis - Dec 2003 - play a ogg file from a given buffer instead of a file

Hello.

I haven't found any function to pass a pre-allocated buffer pointer 
containing a encoded OGG data and get the decoded data back. All I've 
found it's from a given filename.

Has anyone needed this before?
Any idea?

Thanks.

I assume you're using libvorbisfile.
Instead of calling ov_open() (which takes a FILE *, to read from a file), use 
ov_open_callbacks, providing a set of callbacks which read data from your 
pre-allocated buffer. These callbacks are fairly trivial to write (and even 
simpler if you don't want to support seeking).
