Ogg - The Encyclopedia (1698 words) |
 | Ogg is a patent-free, fully open and standardised multimedia bitstream container format designed for efficient streaming and manipulation (concatenation and muxing) by the Xiph.Org Foundation. |
| Files ending in the.ogg extension may be of any Ogg media filetype, and because the format is free, Ogg's various codecs have been incorporated into a number of different free and commercial media players as well as portable media players from different manufacturers. |
| Although Ogg hasn't reached anywhere near the ubiquity of the MPEG standards (e.g.: MP3), as of 2006, it is commonly used to encode free content (such as free music, multimedia on Wikimedia projects and Creative Commons files) and has started to be supported by a significant minority of digital audio players. |

| Ogg is a patent-free, fully open multimedia bitstream container designed for efficient streaming and storage. |
| The Ogg bitstream format, spearheaded by the Xiph.org Foundation, has been created as the framework of a larger initiative aimed at developing a set of components for the coding and decoding of multimedia content which are both freely available and freely re-implementable in software. |
| Independent Ogg implementations are used in several projects such as RealPlayer and a set of DirectShow filters. |
