OGG movie files??

[snapmaster]

Ok i have this movie that i downloaded. It is all in "OGG" WTF!!
I thought that ogg was just a audio track? Any way i want to convert it to vcd, and i cant get anything to open it. I have the player and codec to play it,(wiht gspot it says that it is xvid) so i need to know how i can get it to how as xvid. Is there someway of splitting the audio out of the ogg file?? PLZ HELP!

I'm sure there's a guide on this site, I tried it myself once but gave up as it was a bit too complicated for me.

It could be an XVid movie with an Ogg Vorbis audio track to it. Great quality, smaller file.

Did you know that Xiph are working on Ogg Theora. It's like Vorbis for movies - small file sizes, great quality. Sadly, I don't know much about it. If it's as good as Vorbis is for audio, I am definitely interested - I want to store several DVDs on my hard drive to take to Uni.

I don't think it's anywhere near completion yet. Never mind, as many people here will well know, quality does take time and patience.

get the core media player it installs the codec for you and plays the file

I used to use Graphedit for working with OGMs until I came across this method.

It's dead simple - just converts the OGG into WAV whilst leaving the video alone. You've then got an AVI you can use in the regular way...

(Warning - the audio is uncompressed, so the file size will be fairly large)
