.DV is a file extension that provides for digital video cameras. This file extension is utilized by home and professional camcorders alike. It is the standard file format that prevails over other alternative video file formats. No other file format can stand up to the quality and utility of the .DV file extension and its other related file extensions, .DVCAM and .DVCPRO.
The OGG file format and .ogg file extension refer to the open source container format developed and maintained by the Xiph.Org Foundation. The format has been in development since the early 90's and initially was designed as an open format for audio compression. Later iterations has seen the format revised into a full audio and video container format with compression codec support of different standards. OGG can be used both in compressed or uncompressed ways and is compatible with different lossy and lossless codecs both for audio and for video. Text can also be added into OGG files as an overlay, all packaged within a single file.
FreeFileConvert uses tuned encoding for DV to OGG conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished audio streams instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload DV files from desktop, tablet, or cloud storage, queue multiple jobs, and let the converter finish autonomously. Return whenever convenient to download synchronized OGG results on any device you rely on.
Process up to 5 files sized 1000 MB per batch without splitting queues manually. Mixed-format uploads convert together, producing consistent OGG audio with dependable progress tracking.
.DV file formats make use of intra-frame compression to simplify the work of video editing. Intra-frame compression is the process of taking still images and playing them one after the other. In addition, the file format is still intensive in matters of memory storage. A 5-minute video clip can take up to a gigabyte of memory.
Though OGG is versatile in the number of codecs it supports, typically only free codecs developed by the Xiph.org organization are used for encoding and decoding. From the lossy family of codecs, audio can be encoded using Speex, Vorbis, or Opus. Whereas Lossless or uncompressed encoding can be done using FLAC and OggPCM respectively. To be competitive against its closest rivals such as Windows Media Video, Real Video and MPEG-4, lossy video compression codec Theora is often used but a lossless format, DIRAC, can also be used to encode video streams.
