+# Xiph.org Foundation's libtheora
+
+### What is Theora?
+
+Theora was Xiph.Org's first publicly released video codec, intended
+for use within the Foundation's Ogg multimedia streaming system.
+Theora is derived directly from On2's VP3 codec, adds new features
+while allowing it a longer useful lifetime.
+
+The 1.0 release decoder supported all the new features, but the
+encoder is nearly identical to the VP3 code.
+
+The 1.1 release featured a completely rewritten encoder, offering
+better performance and compression, and making more complete use
+of the format's feature set.
+
+The 1.2 release features significant additional improvements in
+compression and performance. Files produced by newer encoders can
+be decoded by earlier releases.
+
+### Where is Theora?
+
+Theora's main site is https://www.theora.org. Releases of Theora
+and related libraries can be found on the
+[download page](https://www.theora.org/downloads/) or the
+[main Xiph.Org site](https://xiph.org/downloads/).
+
+Development source is kept at https://gitlab.xiph.org/xiph/theora.
+
+## Getting started with the code
+
+### What do I need to build the source?
+
+Requirements summary:
+
+For libtheora:
+
+*   libogg 1.1 or newer.
+
+For example encoder:
+
+*   as above,
+*   libvorbis and libvorbisenc 1.0.1 or newer.
+    (libvorbis 1.3.1 or newer for 5.1 audio)
+
+For creating a source distribution package:
+
+*   as above,
+*   Doxygen to build the API documentation,
+*   pdflatex and fig2dev to build the format specification
+    (transfig package in Ubuntu).
+
+For the player only:
+
+*   as above,
+*   SDL (Simple Direct media Layer) libraries and headers,
+*   OSS audio driver and development headers.
+
+The provided build system is the GNU automake/autoconf system, and
+the main library, libtheora, should already build smoothly on any
+system.  Failure of libtheora to build on a GNU-enabled system is
+considered a bug; please report problems to theora-dev@xiph.org.
+
+Windows build support is included in the win32 directory.
+
+Project files for Apple XCode are included in the macosx directory.
+
+There is also a more limited scons build.
+
+### How do I use the sample encoder?
+
+The sample encoder takes raw video in YUV4MPEG2 format, as used by
+lavtools, mjpeg-tools and other packages. The encoder expects audio,
+if any, in a separate wave WAV file. Try 'encoder_example -h' for a
+complete list of options.
+
+An easy way to get raw video and audio files is to use MPlayer as an
+export utility.  The options " -ao pcm -vo yuv4mpeg " will export a
+wav file named audiodump.wav and a YUV video file in the correct
+format for encoder_example as stream.yuv.  Be careful when exporting
+video alone; MPlayer may drop frames to 'keep up' with the audio
+timer.  The example encoder can't properly synchronize input audio and
+video file that aren't in sync to begin with.
+
+The encoder will also take video or audio on stdin if '-' is specified
+as the input file name.
+
+There is also a 'png2theora' example which accepts a set of image
+files in that format.
+
+### How do I use the sample player?
+
+The sample player takes an Ogg file on standard in; the file may be
+audio alone, video alone or video with audio.
+
+### What other tools are available?
+
+The programs in the examples directory are intended as tutorial source
+for developers using the library. As such they sacrifice features and
+robustness in the interests of comprehension and should not be
+considered serious applications.
+
+If you're wanting to just use theora, consider the programs linked
+from https://www.theora.org/. There is playback support in a number
+of common free players, and plugins for major media frameworks.
+Jan Gerber's ffmpeg2theora is an excellent encoding front end.
+
+## Troubleshooting the build process
+
+### Compile error, such as:
+
+encoder_internal.h:664: parse error before `ogg_uint16_t`
+
+This means you have version of libogg prior to 1.1. A *complete* new Ogg
+install, libs and headers is needed.
+
+Also be sure that there aren't multiple copies of Ogg installed in
+/usr and /usr/local; an older one might be first on the search path
+for libs and headers.
+
+### Link error, such as:
+
+undefined reference to `oggpackB_stream`
+
+See above; you need libogg 1.1 or later.
+
+### Link error, such as:
+
+undefined reference to `vorbis_granule_time`
+
+You need libvorbis and libvorbisenc from the 1.0.1 release or later.
+
+### Link error, such as:
+
+/usr/lib/libSDL.a(SDL_esdaudio.lo): In function `ESD_OpenAudio`:
+SDL_esdaudio.lo(.text+0x25d): undefined reference to `esd_play_stream`
+
+Be sure to use an SDL that's built to work with OSS.  If you use an
+SDL that is also built with ESD and/or ALSA support, it will try to
+suck in all those extra libraries at link time too.  That will only
+work if the extra libraries are also installed.
+
+### Link warning, such as:
+
+libtool: link: warning: library `/usr/lib/libogg.la` was moved.
+libtool: link: warning: library `/usr/lib/libogg.la` was moved.
+
+Re-run theora/autogen.sh after an Ogg or Vorbis rebuild/reinstall
