Yeah, the track attribute of the media fragments specification that
Ralph links will in theory allow to just download the track-related
data. But it still requires implementation - either in the browser,
which will somehow need to identify which bytes belong to which track
and just request those
In order to do this you'd need to know /in advance/ exactly which Ogg
pages were audio and which were video so you could choose to only
download the vorbis pages. The upcoming Ogg Skeleton index does not
index pages at a high enough granularity to facilitate this. It could,
but then the index
I've heard it is easier with MP4 to do byte-range requests for a track
only. Thanks for clarifying that index won't have any of this
information! Indeed, providing an audio file on the server is the
simplest solution to this (follow the KISS-principle :).
Cheers,
Silvia.
