## Detailed Description

Theora bitstream information.

This contains the basic playback parameters for a stream, and corresponds to the initial 'info' header packet. To initialize an encoder, the application fills in this structure and passes it to th_encode_alloc(). A default encoding mode is chosen based on the values of the quality and target_bitrate fields. On decode, it is filled in by th_decode_headerin(), and then passed to th_decode_alloc().

Encoded Theora frames must be a multiple of 16 in size; this is what the frame_width and frame_height members represent. To handle arbitrary picture sizes, a crop rectangle is specified in the pic_x, pic_y, pic_width and pic_height members.

All frame buffers contain pointers to the full, padded frame. However, the current encoder will not reference pixels outside of the cropped picture region, and the application does not need to fill them in. The decoder will allocate storage for a full frame, but the application should not rely on the padding containing sensible data.

It is also generally recommended that the offsets and sizes should still be multiples of 2 to avoid chroma sampling shifts when chroma is sub-sampled. See the Theora specification, Section 4.4, for more details.

Frame rate, in frames per second, is stored as a rational fraction, as is the pixel aspect ratio. Note that this refers to the aspect ratio of the individual pixels, not of the overall frame itself. The frame aspect ratio can be computed from pixel aspect ratio using the image dimensions.

## Field Documentation

## ◆ aspect_denominator

ogg_uint32_t th_info::aspect_denominator

## ◆ aspect_numerator

ogg_uint32_t th_info::aspect_numerator

## ◆ colorspace

th_colorspace th_info::colorspace

The color space.

## ◆ fps_denominator

ogg_uint32_t th_info::fps_denominator

## ◆ fps_numerator

ogg_uint32_t th_info::fps_numerator

## ◆ frame_height

ogg_uint32_t th_info::frame_height

The encoded frame height.

This must be a multiple of 16, and less than 1048576.

## ◆ frame_width

ogg_uint32_t th_info::frame_width

The encoded frame width.

This must be a multiple of 16, and less than 1048576.

## ◆ keyframe_granule_shift

int th_info::keyframe_granule_shift

The amount to shift to extract the last keyframe number from the granule position.

This can be at most 31. th_info_init() will set this to a default value (currently `6`, which is good for streaming applications), but you can set it to 0 to make every frame a keyframe. The maximum distance between key frames is `1<<keyframe_granule_shift`. The keyframe frequency can be more finely controlled with TH_ENCCTL_SET_KEYFRAME_FREQUENCY_FORCE, which can also be adjusted during encoding (for example, to force the next frame to be a keyframe), but it cannot be set larger than the amount permitted by this field after the headers have been output.

## ◆ pic_height

ogg_uint32_t th_info::pic_height

The displayed picture height.

This must be no larger than height.

## ◆ pic_width

ogg_uint32_t th_info::pic_width

The displayed picture width.

This must be no larger than width.

## ◆ pic_x

ogg_uint32_t th_info::pic_x

The X offset of the displayed picture.

This must be no larger than frame_width-pic_width or 255, whichever is smaller.

## ◆ pic_y

ogg_uint32_t th_info::pic_y

The Y offset of the displayed picture.

This must be no larger than frame_height-pic_height, and frame_height-pic_height-pic_y must be no larger than 255. This slightly funny restriction is due to the fact that the offset is specified from the top of the image for consistency with the standard graphics left-handed coordinate system used throughout this API, while it is stored in the encoded stream as an offset from the bottom.

## ◆ pixel_fmt

th_pixel_fmt th_info::pixel_fmt

The pixel format.

## ◆ quality

int th_info::quality

The target quality level.

Valid values range from 0 to 63, inclusive, with higher values giving higher quality. If initializing an encoder with this struct, and target_bitrate is set to zero, VBR encoding at this quality will be activated by default.

## ◆ target_bitrate

int th_info::target_bitrate

The target bit-rate in bits per second.

If initializing an encoder with this struct, set this field to a non-zero value to activate CBR encoding by default.

## ◆ version_major

unsigned char th_info::version_major

## ◆ version_minor

unsigned char th_info::version_minor

## ◆ version_subminor

unsigned char th_info::version_subminor
