What is Ogg video?
An Ogg container carrying video. OGV is commonly associated with Theora video and Vorbis audio, keeping video separate from audio-only Ogg naming.
Output uses Theora and Vorbis. Playback depends on browser codec support.
Technical details
Ogg video places codec packets into Ogg logical streams, segmented into pages with granule positions. [1]
Background and compatibility
Ogg is a codec-independent Xiph container; .ogv commonly signals video, but the contained codec must still be supported. [1]
