Ogg Media ('''OGM'''), meaning ''' Ogg Media File''', is a Container Format (for video, audio and Subtitle streams). It was developed by Tobias Waldvogel and can do a few things the common AVI format cannot. OGM's features include in particular:
OGM support for Windows (Including video, and is available on Unix-based systems with MPlayer ). Fundamentally, the format is a hack of the ) mature and come to support the same services. Originally, a major drawback of OGM was that it was not Free Software / Open Source , even though it was based on the open source Ogg framework. The reason was that Tobias was embarrassed about the quick-dirty-hack quality of his code, wanting to improve it before releasing it to the keen eyes of the Xiph.org people. Tobias has officially joined the Xiph.org team since, and has donated all the code of his DirectShow filters — including format manipulation and playback — to their BSD -style Free Software Licensed repository. It is available, though without documentation, in the "''oggds''" module of the repository. OGMs most often carry video encoded in the XviD format and audio in Vorbis or AC-3 ( Dolby Digital ).
