In Theora terminology, a 16x16 unit spanning all 3 color planes (8x8 in U
and V) is called a "macroblock".  To encode the contents of a macroblock,
you must separate out the different color planes, and form "superblocks"
in each color plane.  The DC coefficients of each block are then coded in
"raster order", while the AC coefficients are coded in "coded order".
These orders are described in sections 2.3 and 2.4 of the Theora bitstream
specification.

The ordering of coefficients is
Y plane DC coefficients in raster order (whole plane)
Y plane AC coefficient 1 in coded order (whole plane)
Y plane AC coefficient 2 in coded order ...
...
Same for U plane
Same for V plane
