     20 <p>This function returns the average bitrate for the specified logical bitstream.  This may be different from the <a href=ov_info.html>ov_info->nominal_bitrate</a> value, as it is based on the actual average for this bitstream if the file is seekable.
     21 <p>Nonseekable files will return the nominal bitrate setting or the average of the upper and lower bounds, if any of these values are set.

     35 <h3>Parameters</h3>
     36 <dl>
     37 <dt><i>vf</i></dt>
     38 <dd>A pointer to the OggVorbis_File structure--this is used for ALL the externally visible libvorbisfile
     39 functions.</dd>
     40 <dt><i>i</i></dt>
     41 <dd>Link to the desired logical bitstream.  For nonseekable files, this argument is ignored.  To retrieve the bitrate for the entire bitstream, this parameter should be set to -1.</dd>
     42 </dl>
     43 
     44 
     45 <h3>Return Values</h3>
     46 <blockquote>
     47 <li>OV_EINVAL indicates that an invalid argument value was submitted or that the stream represented by <tt>vf</tt> is not open.</li>
     48 <li>OV_FALSE means the call returned a 'false' status, which in this case most likely indicates that the file is nonseekable and the upper, lower, and nominal bitrates were unset.
     49 <li><i>n</i> indicates the bitrate for the given logical bitstream or the entire
     50    physical bitstream.  If the file is open for random (seekable) access, it will
     51    find the *actual* average bitrate.  If the file is streaming (nonseekable), it
     52    returns the nominal bitrate (if set) or else the average of the
     53    upper/lower bounds (if set).</li>
