Default can someone test an OGG video on linux?

Hi,

I only have Windows. I used VLC to convert an MP4 to OGG. It plays well
in VLC. Can someone(s) test it on linux for me?

The video on that web page worked fine though. As far as I know, Firefox
has built-in support for OGG and every other free codec so if that's what
you used, I'm surprised that it didn't work.

the code checks MP4 first, then OGG before it throws a message

I don't think slapping .ogg on the filename, makes
it an OGG. The ffprobe output doesn't mention the
container type, just the video and audio codecs.

The extension .ogg might be for a soundfile only.
I have some counter-examples.

The ".ogv" appears to be theora/vorbis.
The ".webm" appears to be VP8/vorbis.

In VLC, the .webm is liquid and artifact-free.

You could try some video conversions with ffmpeg.
Once the ffprobe detections improve, you can re-post.

Big_Buck_Bunny is from the Video For Everybody test page.

Thanks,


I'm running Firefox on Linux.

Neither link is actually to an .ogg, but to a page where one can be
downloaded. I suppose you wanted the first file there.

Firefox 61 shows a player with "No video with supported format and MIME
type".

It's not working on the latest Chromium or Opera either.

Saving didn't work in FF, but did in Chromium. The file played OK. It
just doesn't work in a browser.

Browsers have specific codec requirements, that are probably stricter
than a standalone player.

Apparently, this file is NOT an .ogg. Your standalone player is
recognizing it (probably MP4) and playing that. Browsers are more
particular.

My converter program identified the video codec as H.264 (as used by
MP4) rather than Theora (as used by OGG), as if the file had been
RENAMED rather than actually converted.

It takes a real .ogg to play in a browser.

Are you sure you actually converted it, not just saved it with a
different name? As I posted elsewhere, this file appears to be a .MP4
with the wrong extension.

When using VLC to convert, you need to select something under "Profile".
In this case, it would be "Video: Theora + Vorbis (OGG)".

A browser checks for the MIME type (should be video/ogg) provided by the
server, and the codecs (Theora, Vorbis).

Simple. It doesn't work because it's not an OGG.

"If you call the tail a leg, how many legs does a dog have?"
"Four. Calling the tail a leg doesn't make it one."

In the same way, calling an MP4 an OGG doesn't make it one. That file is
a MP4. You need to convert it.
