Being the most broadly compatible audio and video container format from the lossy class of containers, the MPEG standards are supported by numerous audio and video products and software applications. The standards were designed to meet the growing need for digital storage of audio and video media. They both utilize a lossy compression to scale down VHS quality digital video and CD audio. The two formats, mpeg-1 and mpeg-2, are the result of the combined efforts of the moving picture experts group which was established in 1988. The mpeg-1 has its beginnings in the same year, with an initial release to public in 1993.
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 MPEG to OGG conversions, preserving clarity while trimming file size. Finished audio streams instantly across phones, tablets, desktops, and modern browsers without extra tweaks.
Upload MPEG 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.
The mpeg-1 file format extension is standardized in ISO/IEC 11172. It was extended from the H.261 and JPEG file formats and is capable of scaling down VHS video at a ratio of 26:1 and CD audio at a ratio of 6:1. The format allows for transcoding of video and associated audio to a maximum bitrate of 1.5 Mbit/second. interlaced video is supported in the second iteration of the mpeg format, mpeg-2. Video encoding is achieved using the compression standard H.262. The newer format also has added support for newer audio encoding techniques.
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.
