About the OGV and MP4 formats

OGV

OGV is the Ogg container carrying Theora video — a fully open, royalty-free format favoured by Wikipedia and open-source projects. Firefox and Chrome play it, but Safari and most phones do not, so convert OGV to MP4 whenever the audience is wider than the open-source world.

MP4

MP4 (MPEG-4 Part 14) is the most widely supported video container on the planet. It packs H.264 or H.265 video with AAC audio into a single file that plays natively on iPhone, Android, Windows, macOS, web browsers, smart TVs, and every modern editor. Use MP4 when you need a finished, shareable video that will just work, anywhere, without re-encoding.

How it works

How to convert OGV to MP4

  1. Upload or paste a OGV link

    Drop a OGV file from your device, or paste a public URL pointing to the OGV you want to convert.

  2. Confirm MP4 as the output format

    The output is pre-set to MP4. You can adjust quality or bitrate in the advanced options if you need a smaller file.

  3. Start the conversion

    Click Convert. Our cloud workers fetch the OGV, scan it for malware, and run the OGV → MP4 pipeline.

  4. Download your MP4 file

    A one-time pre-signed link appears as soon as the MP4 is ready. The file is automatically deleted from our storage 2 hours later.
