<p>The <a href="https://xiph.org/vorbis/doc/framing.html" rel="nofollow">Ogg audio framing format</a> has a 32-bit field in page headers that is supposed to store a 32-bit CRC checksum of the entire page. That is, the checksum field is set to 0, then the page is fed into CRC, and then the checksum field set to the result.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://golang.org/pkg/hash/crc32/" rel="nofollow">standard library</a> has CRC support. This is what I'm doing:</p>
<pre><code>package main
import (
"hash/crc32"
)
func main() {
// Read Opus file page into "bytes"
// Zero checksum bytes
table := crc32.MakeTable(0x04c11db7)
hash := crc32.New(table)
hash.Write(bytes)
}
</code></pre>
<p>This gives me a checksum of <code>0xfa70dc13</code>. But looking at the input file in a hex editor, I can see the checksum should be <code>0x4092e33c</code>. I believe the problem is that Ogg uses a <a href="http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=5314" rel="nofollow">slightly non-standard</a> version of CRC, where the initial value and final XOR are 0 as opposed to some other value (I think normally both are <code>0xffffffff</code>).</p>
<p>I'm wondering what my options are. Is there some way to use these custom values, or do I have to write my own CRC32?</p>
<p>Thanks so much for any help.</p>
<p>EDIT: It looks like others have decided to <a href="https://github.com/grd/ogg/blob/master/ogg.go#L246" rel="nofollow">write their own</a>, but I'm still wondering if there's a better way.</p>
<hr/>**评论：**<br/><br/>besna: <pre><p>If I remember right, isn't the crc calculated based on the resulting audio stream?</p></pre>will_alexander: <pre><p>The CRC is calculated for each page. Each page can be up to 255 segments long, where each segment contains 255 bytes (except the last segment, which can contain fewer). That means that each page can be at most ~64 kilobytes long, which means that most audio streams wouldn't fit in a single page. So no, the CRC isn't calculated based on the stream per se. <a href="https://xiph.org/vorbis/doc/framing.html" rel="nofollow">More info</a></p>
<p>In the case of the pages I'm working with, which are the metadata/Vorbis comment blocks, they're much short than 64KB, usually only one or two segments long.</p></pre>dwevlo: <pre><p>You can use Update:</p>
<pre><code>x := crc32.Update(0xFFFFFFFF, table, bytes)
fmt.Printf("%x\n", ^x)
</code></pre>
<p>But that doesn't seem to give the right answer. The algorithms look different:</p>
<pre><code>func OggCRC(crc uint32, data []byte, tab *crc32.Table) uint32 {
crc = ^crc
for i := range data {
crc = tab[byte(crc>>24)^data[i]] ^ (crc << 8)
}
return ^crc
}
</code></pre>
<p>vs:</p>
<pre><code>func update(crc uint32, tab *Table, p []byte) uint32 {
crc = ^crc
for _, v := range p {
crc = tab[byte(crc)^v] ^ (crc >> 8)
}
return ^crc
}
</code></pre>
<p>But maybe you could modify the table in such a way that it comes out the same.</p></pre>will_alexander: <pre><p>Thanks for the info. How did you find <code>OggCRC()</code>? </p></pre>dwevlo: <pre><p>From the link you provided. I just rewrote it slightly to match the other one so I could compare them.</p></pre>
