Flac - Feb 2008 - What is the magic code for Ogg FLAC?

Hello,

I just noticed that ogginfo is not properly detecting Ogg FLAC files.
To fix the issue I will need to know what is the correct magic for Ogg
FLAC and how big are the packet bytes.

Please advise.

I think everything you need is here:
http://flac.sourceforge.net/ogg_mapping.html

let me know if that doesn't have enough info.

I'd say it had enough info, but too much for what I needed.  I ended
up finding the answer in oggenc/flac.c: it's "\177FLAC" not
"fLaC" as
ogginfo claimed.

Is this right, Josh?  While my patched ogginfo now detects Ogg FLAC
properly, I'm not sure if this is the correct method.  ogginfo only
checks for magic and packet size.
