Hey,

hmm, without the MatroskaCodec documentation you cannot really decode most
of the content as it describes the format of the codec's initialization
data stored in the CodecPrivate element as well as the format of the
contents of the BlockGroup and SimpleBlock elements.

You could certainly decode a file without knowledge of MatroskaTags,
though, as that information is purely informative and meant for us humans,
not for the decoders.

Kind regards,
mosu
