Xvid/Ogg to DVD Help!

[coleman83]

OK here is my problem. I have some video files that use the Xvid codec and Ogg for audio, however despite the fact that they are avi files the extension is .ogg. I can play the file on my pc no trouble using an Ogg direct show filter, however I would like to convert to DVD so I can play on my tv. Using TMPEGenc I can encode to video but no audio! How can I extract the audio? Any ideas, i've tried to load into Virtualdub but with no sucess. Also how can I rename the extension .avi? I'm using XP any help much appreciated.
Thanks

I have the current same problem, i have a movie in .ogm format, have tried renaming the extension to .avi, then i try decompress using avi2vcd decompressor, but when i try loading the renamed .avi file into decompressor, the avi cannot be seen?

Come on peeps, help us out!!

Hi guys,

https://www.videohelp.com/forum/userguides/89139.php

I know this isn't exactly what you were looking for, but it may be a good starting point to encoding a .OGM to DVD.

As far as audio extraction goes, this should help:

It should (as far as I can see) allow VirtualDub to see and work with Ogg audio.

As usual, I don't know enough to provide The Definitive Answer. However, that magical search field located at the top of the forum helped loads!

Best of luck to you both!

The simplest way I have found to do this is:
1) Rename the file from .OGM to .AVI i.e film.ogm --> film.avi
2) Use a program called DeCompress (Its part of AVI2VCD), open the now named .avi file, select a destination location and click 'Decompress'.
3) The file that has been created can now be encoded for DVD using TMPGEnc.

(No idea why this method doesn't work for you TheDJ®)

This is the easiest way I have found anyway, there are other means but all involve demuxing the .OGG audio track and re-encoding it to something that is DVD compliant, saving the AVI file with no audio tracks, encoding this with TMPGEnc then remuxing the tracks with a DVD authoring program.

If you can demux the .OGG audio, use Audacity to convert it to WAV. Nice 'n easy tool to use, does a good job too.
