Assorted information on dot OGG and HTML-5 files.
Or should we say "we don't need no stinking FLASH"...


The video below is called,
video.ogg


And on the next line is a AUDIO file called,
audio.ogg



If you can not play them, see below...


What the hell are dot ogg files ?
They are a FREE OPEN SOURCE way to make and view BOTH video and audio files !

Yes, this means you can make "royalty free" movies or audio files,
which can be played by FREE applications like VLC (see below).

  1. Filename extensions can be:
    .ogv, .oga, .ogx, .ogg, .spx
  2. Internet media mime.types your webserver SHOULD have:
    video/ogg, audio/ogg, application/ogg


And yes, ya gonna need a new codec to seem em,
and a browser that supports the new HTML-5 VIDEO and AUDIO tag too !!!
