16 oggz-sort sorts an Ogg file, interleaving pages in order of presenta‐

18 Vorbis, Speex, FLAC and Theora bitstreams, and all bitstreams of Ann‐
19 odex files.

22 Some encoders produce files with incorrect page ordering; for example,
23 some audio and video pages may occur out of order. Although these files
24 are usually playable, it can be difficult to accurately seek or scrub
25 on them, increasing the likelihood of glitches during playback. Play‐
26 ers may also need to use more memory in order to buffer the audio and
27 video data for synchronized playback, which can be a problem when the
28 files are viewed on low-memory devices.

32 packets in a file. If out of order packets are reported, use oggz-sort
33 to fix the problem.
