     20 <p>This is the primary function within libvorbisenc for setting up variable bitrate ("quality" based) modes.
     21 <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.  After encoding, vorbis_info_clear should be called.
