OGV to AVI Converter

OGV is a video format that uses the Ogg container and typically employs Theora for video compression. It is part of the free and open Ogg multimedia framework. OGV is often used in web applications where open-source licensing is a priority. While not as efficient as newer formats like MP4 or WEBM, it is still supported in many web contexts and browsers that prioritize open standards. OGV is useful for preserving digital freedom and compatibility with open tools.

AVI (Audio Video Interleave) is a multimedia container format introduced by Microsoft. It stores both video and audio data and is known for its simplicity and broad compatibility. AVI files often have larger file sizes compared to newer formats due to less efficient compression. It supports various codecs and is commonly used in older Windows-based applications. While less common today, AVI remains relevant in archival and compatibility-focused workflows.
