Yes, in all of the .ogg files I've seen, the language attributes look
like this: "LANUGAGE=English" or "LANGUAGE=Japanese". In
vorbis_ParseComment() (defined in vlc/modules/demux/vorbis.h), I added
another case:
else IF_EXTRACT("LANGUAGE=", Language )
and added Language as another enum value. Also, I added a vlc_meta_t
*p_meta member to the logical_stream_s struct in modules/demux/ogg.h,
as it was previously only in the demux_sys_t struct. Calling
vorbis_ParseComment() with &p_stream->p_meta as the first argument
stores the appropriate language metadata in each stream separately.
With these modifications, the language string can later be retrieved
with vlc_meta_Get(p_stream->p_meta, vlc_meta_Language). I am unsure
how to accomplish all of this from within Ogg_ReadVorbisHeader(),
however.
