It functions similarly to the one-step 22 setup performed by <a 23 href="vorbis_encode_init_vbr.html">vorbis_encode_init_vbr()</a> but 24 allows an application to make further encode setup tweaks using <a 25 href="vorbis_encode_ctl.html">vorbis_encode_ctl()</a> before finally 26 calling <a 27 href="vorbis_encode_setup_init.html">vorbis_encode_setup_init()</a> to 28 complete the setup process. 29 30 <p>Before this function is called, the <a href="vorbis_info.html">vorbis_info</a> struct should be initialized by using vorbis_info_init() from the libvorbis API.
