RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
1. Introduction
Vorbis is a general purpose perceptual audio codec intended to allow
maximum encoder flexibility, thus allowing it to scale competitively
over an exceptionally wide range of bit rates. At the high quality/
bitrate end of the scale (CD or DAT rate stereo, 16/24 bits), it is
in the same league as MPEG-4 AAC. Vorbis is also intended for lower
and higher sample rates (from 8kHz telephony to 192kHz digital
masters) and a range of channel representations (monaural,
polyphonic, stereo, quadraphonic, 5.1, ambisonic, or up to 255
discrete channels).
Vorbis encoded audio is generally encapsulated within an Ogg format
bitstream [RFC3533], which provides framing and synchronization. For
the purposes of RTP transport, this layer is unnecessary, and so raw
Vorbis packets are used in the payload.
1.1. Conformance and Document Conventions
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14, [RFC2119] and
indicate requirement levels for compliant implementations.
Requirements apply to all implementations unless otherwise stated.
An implementation is a software module that supports one of the media
types defined in this document. Software modules may support
multiple media types, but conformance is considered individually for
each type.
Implementations that fail to satisfy one or more "MUST" requirements
are considered non-compliant. Implementations that satisfy all
"MUST" requirements, but fail to satisfy one or more "SHOULD"
requirements, are said to be "conditionally compliant". All other
implementations are "unconditionally compliant".
2. Payload Format
For RTP-based transport of Vorbis-encoded audio, the standard RTP
header is followed by a 4-octet payload header, and then the payload
data. The payload headers are used to associate the Vorbis data with
its associated decoding codebooks as well as indicate if the
following packet contains fragmented Vorbis data and/or the number of
whole Vorbis data frames. The payload data contains the raw Vorbis
bitstream information. There are 3 types of Vorbis data; an RTP
payload MUST contain just one of them at a time.
Barbato Standards Track [Page 3]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
2.1. RTP Header
The format of the RTP header is specified in [RFC3550] and shown in
Figure 1. This payload format uses the fields of the header in a
manner consistent with that specification.

Figure 1: RTP Header
The RTP header begins with an octet of fields (V, P, X, and CC) to
support specialized RTP uses (see [RFC3550] and [RFC3551] for
details). For Vorbis RTP, the following values are used.
Version (V): 2 bits
This field identifies the version of RTP. The version used by this
specification is two (2).
Padding (P): 1 bit
Padding MAY be used with this payload format according to Section 5.1
of [RFC3550].
Extension (X): 1 bit
The Extension bit is used in accordance with [RFC3550].
CSRC count (CC): 4 bits
The CSRC count is used in accordance with [RFC3550].
Marker (M): 1 bit
Set to zero. Audio silence suppression is not used. This conforms
to Section 4.1 of [VORBIS-SPEC-REF].
Barbato Standards Track [Page 4]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
Payload Type (PT): 7 bits
An RTP profile for a class of applications is expected to assign a
payload type for this format, or a dynamically allocated payload type
SHOULD be chosen that designates the payload as Vorbis.
Sequence number: 16 bits
The sequence number increments by one for each RTP data packet sent,
and may be used by the receiver to detect packet loss and to restore
the packet sequence. This field is detailed further in [RFC3550].
Timestamp: 32 bits
A timestamp representing the sampling time of the first sample of the
first Vorbis packet in the RTP payload. The clock frequency MUST be
set to the sample rate of the encoded audio data and is conveyed out-
of-band (e.g., as an SDP parameter).
SSRC/CSRC identifiers:
These two fields, 32 bits each with one SSRC field and a maximum of
16 CSRC fields, are as defined in [RFC3550].
2.2. Payload Header
The 4 octets following the RTP Header section are the Payload Header.
This header is split into a number of bit fields detailing the format
of the following payload data packets.
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Figure 2: Payload Header
Ident: 24 bits
This 24-bit field is used to associate the Vorbis data to a decoding
Configuration. It is stored as a network byte order integer.
Fragment type (F): 2 bits
Barbato Standards Track [Page 5]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
This field is set according to the following list:
0 = Not Fragmented
1 = Start Fragment
2 = Continuation Fragment
3 = End Fragment
Vorbis Data Type (VDT): 2 bits
This field specifies the kind of Vorbis data stored in this RTP
packet. There are currently three different types of Vorbis
payloads. Each packet MUST contain only a single type of Vorbis
packet (e.g., you must not aggregate configuration and comment
packets in the same RTP payload).
0 = Raw Vorbis payload
1 = Vorbis Packed Configuration payload
2 = Legacy Vorbis Comment payload
3 = Reserved
The packets with a VDT of value 3 MUST be ignored.
The last 4 bits represent the number of complete packets in this
payload. This provides for a maximum number of 15 Vorbis packets in
the payload. If the payload contains fragmented data, the number of
packets MUST be set to 0.
2.3. Payload Data
Raw Vorbis packets are currently unbounded in length; application
profiles will likely define a practical limit. Typical Vorbis packet
sizes range from very small (2-3 bytes) to quite large (8-12
kilobytes). The reference implementation [LIBVORBIS] typically
produces packets less than ~800 bytes, except for the setup header
packets, which are ~4-12 kilobytes. Within an RTP context, to avoid
fragmentation, the Vorbis data packet size SHOULD be kept
sufficiently small so that after adding the RTP and payload headers,
the complete RTP packet is smaller than the path MTU.

Figure 3: Payload Data Header
Each Vorbis payload packet starts with a two octet length header,
which is used to represent the size in bytes of the following data
payload, and is followed by the raw Vorbis data padded to the nearest
byte boundary, as explained by the Vorbis I Specification
[VORBIS-SPEC-REF]. The length value is stored as a network byte
order integer.
For payloads that consist of multiple Vorbis packets, the payload
data consists of the packet length followed by the packet data for
each of the Vorbis packets in the payload.
The Vorbis packet length header is the length of the Vorbis data
block only and does not include the length field.
The payload packing of the Vorbis data packets MUST follow the
guidelines set out in [RFC3551], where the oldest Vorbis packet
occurs immediately after the RTP packet header. Subsequent Vorbis
packets, if any, MUST follow in temporal order.
Audio channel mapping is in accordance with the Vorbis I
Specification [VORBIS-SPEC-REF].

Figure 4: Example Raw Vorbis Packet
The payload data section of the RTP packet begins with the 24-bit
Ident field followed by the one octet bit field header, which has the
number of Vorbis frames set to 2. Each of the Vorbis data frames is
prefixed by the two octets length field. The Packet Type and
Fragment Type are set to 0. The Configuration that will be used to
decode the packets is the one indexed by the ident value.
3. Configuration Headers
Unlike other mainstream audio codecs, Vorbis has no statically
configured probability model. Instead, it packs all entropy decoding
configuration, Vector Quantization and Huffman models into a data
block that must be transmitted to the decoder with the compressed
data. A decoder also requires information detailing the number of
audio channels, bitrates, and similar information to configure itself
for a particular compressed data stream. These two blocks of
Barbato Standards Track [Page 8]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
information are often referred to collectively as the "codebooks" for
a Vorbis stream, and are included as special "header" packets at the
start of the compressed data. In addition, the Vorbis I
specification [VORBIS-SPEC-REF] requires the presence of a comment
header packet that gives simple metadata about the stream, but this
information is not required for decoding the frame sequence.
Thus, these two codebook header packets must be received by the
decoder before any audio data can be interpreted. These requirements
pose problems in RTP, which is often used over unreliable transports.
Since this information must be transmitted reliably and, as the RTP
stream may change certain configuration data mid-session, there are
different methods for delivering this configuration data to a client,
both in-band and out-of-band, which are detailed below. In order to
set up an initial state for the client application, the configuration
MUST be conveyed via the signalling channel used to set up the
session. One example of such signalling is SDP [RFC4566] with the
Offer/Answer Model [RFC3264]. Changes to the configuration MAY be
communicated via a re-invite, conveying a new SDP, or sent in-band in
the RTP channel. Implementations MUST support an in-band delivery of
updated codebooks, and SHOULD support out-of-band codebook update
using a new SDP file. The changes may be due to different codebooks
as well as different bitrates of the RTP stream.
For non-chained streams, the recommended Configuration delivery
method is inside the Packed Configuration (Section 3.1.1) in the SDP
as explained the Mapping Media Type Parameters into SDP
(Section 7.1).
The 24-bit Ident field is used to map which Configuration will be
used to decode a packet. When the Ident field changes, it indicates
that a change in the stream has taken place. The client application
MUST have in advance the correct configuration. If the client
detects a change in the Ident value and does not have this
information, it MUST NOT decode the raw associated Vorbis data until
it fetches the correct Configuration.
3.1. In-band Header Transmission
The Packed Configuration (Section 3.1.1) Payload is sent in-band with
the packet type bits set to match the Vorbis Data Type. Clients MUST
be capable of dealing with fragmentation and periodic re-transmission
of [RFC4588] the configuration headers. The RTP timestamp value MUST
reflect the transmission time of the first data packet for which this
configuration applies.
Barbato Standards Track [Page 9]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
3.1.1. Packed Configuration
A Vorbis Packed Configuration is indicated with the Vorbis Data Type
field set to 1. Of the three headers defined in the Vorbis I
specification [VORBIS-SPEC-REF], the Identification and the Setup
MUST be packed as they are, while the Comment header MAY be replaced
with a dummy one.
The packed configuration stores Xiph codec configurations in a
generic way: the first field stores the number of the following
packets minus one (count field), the next ones represent the size of
the headers (length fields), and the headers immediately follow the
list of length fields. The size of the last header is implicit.
The count and the length fields are encoded using the following
logic: the data is in network byte order; every byte has the most
significant bit used as a flag, and the following 7 bits are used to
store the value. The first 7 most significant bits are stored in the
first byte. If there are remaining bits, the flag bit is set to 1
and the subsequent 7 bits are stored in the following byte. If there
are remaining bits, set the flag to 1 and the same procedure is
repeated. The ending byte has the flag bit set to 0. To decode,
simply iterate over the bytes until the flag bit is set to 0. For
every byte, the data is added to the accumulated value multiplied by
128.
The headers are packed in the same order as they are present in Ogg
[VORBIS-SPEC-REF]: Identification, Comment, Setup.
The 2 byte length tag defines the length of the packed headers as the
sum of the Configuration, Comment, and Setup lengths.

3.2. Out of Band Transmission
The following packet definition MUST be used when Configuration is
inside in the SDP.
3.2.1. Packed Headers
As mentioned above, the RECOMMENDED delivery vector for Vorbis
configuration data is via a retrieval method that can be performed
using a reliable transport protocol. As the RTP headers are not
required for this method of delivery, the structure of the
configuration data is slightly different. The packed header starts
with a 32-bit (network-byte ordered) count field, which details the
number of packed headers that are contained in the bundle. The
following shows the Packed header payload for each chained Vorbis
stream.

Figure 7: Packed Headers Detail
The key difference between the in-band format and this one is that
there is no need for the payload header octet. In this figure, the
comment has a size bigger than 127 bytes.
3.3. Loss of Configuration Headers
Unlike the loss of raw Vorbis payload data, loss of a configuration
header leads to a situation where it will not be possible to
successfully decode the stream. Implementations MAY try to recover
from an error by requesting again the missing Configuration or, if
the delivery method is in-band, by buffering the payloads waiting for
the Configuration needed to decode them. The baseline reaction
SHOULD either be reset or end the RTP session.
4. Comment Headers
Vorbis Data Type flag set to 2 indicates that the packet contains the
comment metadata, such as artist name, track title, and so on. These
metadata messages are not intended to be fully descriptive but rather
to offer basic track/song information. Clients MAY ignore it
completely. The details on the format of the comments can be found
in the Vorbis I Specification [VORBIS-SPEC-REF].

Figure 8: Comment Packet
The 2-byte length field is necessary since this packet could be
fragmented.
5. Frame Packetization
Each RTP payload contains either one Vorbis packet fragment or an
integer number of complete Vorbis packets (up to a maximum of 15
packets, since the number of packets is defined by a 4-bit value).
Any Vorbis data packet that is less than path MTU SHOULD be bundled
in the RTP payload with as many Vorbis packets as will fit, up to a
maximum of 15, except when such bundling would exceed an
application's desired transmission latency. Path MTU is detailed in
[RFC1191] and [RFC1981].
A fragmented packet has a zero in the last four bits of the payload
header. The first fragment will set the Fragment type to 1. Each
fragment after the first will set the Fragment type to 2 in the
payload header. The consecutive fragments MUST be sent without any
other payload being sent between the first and the last fragment.
The RTP payload containing the last fragment of the Vorbis packet
will have the Fragment type set to 3. To maintain the correct
sequence for fragmented packet reception, the timestamp field of
fragmented packets MUST be the same as the first packet sent, with
Barbato Standards Track [Page 14]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
the sequence number incremented as normal for the subsequent RTP
payloads; this will affect the RTCP jitter measurement. The length
field shows the fragment length.
5.1. Example Fragmented Vorbis Packet
Here is an example of a fragmented Vorbis packet split over three RTP
payloads. Each of them contains the standard RTP headers as well as

The Fragment type field is set to 2, and the number of packets field
is set to 0. For large Vorbis fragments, there can be several of
these types of payloads. The maximum packet size SHOULD be no
greater than the path MTU, including all RTP and payload headers.
The sequence number has been incremented by one, but the timestamp
field remains the same as the initial payload.

Figure 11: Example Fragmented Packet (Packet 3)
This is the last Vorbis fragment payload. The Fragment type is set
to 3 and the packet count remains set to 0. As in the previous
payloads, the timestamp remains set to the first payload timestamp in
the sequence and the sequence number has been incremented.
5.2. Packet Loss
As there is no error correction within the Vorbis stream, packet loss
will result in a loss of signal. Packet loss is more of an issue for
fragmented Vorbis packets as the client will have to cope with the
handling of the Fragment Type. In case of loss of fragments, the
client MUST discard all the remaining Vorbis fragments and decode the
incomplete packet. If we use the fragmented Vorbis packet example
above and the first RTP payload is lost, the client MUST detect that
the next RTP payload has the packet count field set to 0 and the
Fragment type 2 and MUST drop it. The next RTP payload, which is the
final fragmented packet, MUST be dropped in the same manner. If the
missing RTP payload is the last, the two fragments received will be
kept and the incomplete Vorbis packet decoded.
Loss of any of the Configuration fragment will result in the loss of
the full Configuration packet with the result detailed in the Loss of
Configuration Headers (Section 3.3) section.

7. SDP Related Considerations
The following paragraphs define the mapping of the parameters
described in the IANA considerations section and their usage in the
Offer/Answer Model [RFC3264]. In order to be forward compatible, the
implementation MUST ignore unknown parameters.
7.1. Mapping Media Type Parameters into SDP
The information carried in the Media Type specification has a
specific mapping to fields in the Session Description Protocol (SDP)
[RFC4566], which is commonly used to describe RTP sessions. When SDP
is used to specify sessions, the mapping are as follows:
Barbato Standards Track [Page 20]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
o The type name ("audio") goes in SDP "m=" as the media name.
o The subtype name ("vorbis") goes in SDP "a=rtpmap" as the encoding
name.
o The parameter "rate" also goes in "a=rtpmap" as the clock rate.
o The parameter "channels" also goes in "a=rtpmap" as the channel
count.
o The mandated parameters "configuration" MUST be included in the
SDP "a=fmtp" attribute.
If the stream comprises chained Vorbis files and all of them are
known in advance, the Configuration Packet for each file SHOULD be
passed to the client using the configuration attribute.
The port value is specified by the server application bound to the
address specified in the c= line. The channel count value specified
in the rtpmap attribute SHOULD match the current Vorbis stream or
should be considered the maximum number of channels to be expected.
The timestamp clock rate MUST be a multiple of the sample rate; a
different payload number MUST be used if the clock rate changes. The
Configuration payload delivers the exact information, thus the SDP
information SHOULD be considered a hint. An example is found below.
7.1.1. SDP Example
The following example shows a basic SDP single stream. The first
configuration packet is inside the SDP; other configurations could be
fetched at any time from the URIs provided. The following base64
[RFC4648] configuration string is folded in this example due to RFC
line length limitations.
c=IN IP4 192.0.2.1
m=audio RTP/AVP 98
a=rtpmap:98 vorbis/44100/2
a=fmtp:98 configuration=AAAAAZ2f4g9NAh4aAXZvcmJpcwA...;
Note that the payload format (encoding) names are commonly shown in
uppercase. Media Type subtypes are commonly shown in lowercase.
These names are case-insensitive in both places. Similarly,
parameter names are case-insensitive both in Media Type types and in
the default mapping to the SDP a=fmtp attribute. The a=fmtp line is
Barbato Standards Track [Page 21]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
a single line, even if it is shown as multiple lines in this document
for clarity.
7.2. Usage with the SDP Offer/Answer Model
There are no negotiable parameters. All of them are declarative.
8. Congestion Control
The general congestion control considerations for transporting RTP
data apply to Vorbis audio over RTP as well. See the RTP
specification [RFC3550] and any applicable RTP profile (e.g.,
[RFC3551]). Audio data can be encoded using a range of different bit
rates, so it is possible to adapt network bandwidth by adjusting the
encoder bit rate in real time or by having multiple copies of content
encoded at different bit rates.
9. Example
The following example shows a common usage pattern that MAY be
applied in such a situation. The main scope of this section is to
explain better usage of the transmission vectors.
9.1. Stream Radio
This is one of the most common situations: there is one single server
streaming content in multicast, and the clients may start a session
at a random time. The content itself could be a mix of a live stream
(as the webjockey's voice) and stored streams (as the music she
plays).
In this situation, we don't know in advance how many codebooks we
will use. The clients can join anytime and users expect to start
listening to the content in a short time.
Upon joining, the client will receive the current Configuration
necessary to decode the current stream inside the SDP so that the
decoding will start immediately after.
When the streamed content changes, the new Configuration is sent in-
band before the actual stream, and the Configuration that has to be
sent inside the SDP is updated. Since the in-band method is
unreliable, an out-of-band fallback is provided.
The client may choose to fetch the Configuration from the alternate
source as soon as it discovers a Configuration packet got lost in-
band, or use selective retransmission [RFC3611] if the server
supports this feature.
Barbato Standards Track [Page 22]
RFC 5215 Vorbis RTP Payload Format August 2008
A server-side optimization would be to keep a hash list of the
Configurations per session, which avoids packing all of them and
sending the same Configuration with different Ident tags.
A client-side optimization would be to keep a tag list of the
Configurations per session and not process configuration packets that
are already known.
10. Security Considerations
RTP packets using this payload format are subject to the security
considerations discussed in the RTP specification [RFC3550], the
base64 specification [RFC4648], and the URI Generic syntax
specification [RFC3986]. Among other considerations, this implies
that the confidentiality of the media stream is achieved by using
encryption. Because the data compression used with this payload
format is applied end-to-end, encryption may be performed on the
compressed data.

The authors agree to grant third parties the irrevocable right to
copy, use, and distribute the work, with or without modification, in
any medium, without royalty, provided that, unless separate
permission is granted, redistributed modified works do not contain
misleading author, version, name of work, or endorsement information.
