About OGV (.OGV)
OGV is a video file format associated with the Ogg multimedia container developed by the Xiph.Org Foundation. It is often used for streaming and storing video content in open-source projects, supporting high-quality video playback without proprietary restrictions.
Technical Details
OGV files use the Ogg container format, which is designed to multiplex different types of media streams like video, audio, and subtitles. Theora, a key video codec used in OGV files, was introduced in 2004 as a free and open video compression format, aiming to compete with proprietary codecs like H.264.
Additional Information & Use Cases
The OGV format is commonly paired with the Vorbis or Theora codecs, which provide efficient compression and good visual quality. One interesting aspect is that OGV files can be played natively in many modern web browsers without needing additional plugins, making it popular for HTML5 video implementations.
