OVR_VoipOptions.h File
The voip_options configuration is used to specify additional settings for the VoIP transmission for a ovrUserHandle. It consists of two primary options which include using DTX for transmission and setting a maxmimum bitrate for the network connection. You can read more about VoIP here.

struct ovrVoipOptions * ovrVoipOptionsHandle
Functions
ovrVoipOptionsHandle ovr_VoipOptions_Create ( )
Creates a new instance of ovrVoipOptionsHandle() which is used to customize the option flow. It returns a handle to the newly created options object, which can be used to set various properties for the options.
void ovr_VoipOptions_Destroy
( ovrVoipOptionsHandle handle )
Destroys an existing instance of the ovrVoipOptionsHandle() and frees up memory when you're done using it.
void ovr_
( ovrVoipOptionsHandle handle,
ovrVoipBitrate value )
Sets the maximum average bitrate the audio codec should use. Higher bitrates will increase audio quality at the expense of increased network usage. Use a lower bitrate if you think the quality is good but the network usage is too much. Use a higher bitrate if you think the quality is bad and you can afford to have a large streaming bitrate.
void ovr_
( ovrVoipOptionsHandle handle,
ovrVoipDtxState value )
Set the opus codec to use discontinous transmission (DTX). DTX only transmits data when a person is speaking. Setting this to ovrVoipDtxState_Enabled() takes advantage of the fact that in a two-way converstation each individual speaks for less than half the time. Enabling DTX will conserve battery power and reduce transmission rate when a pause in the voice chat is detected.
