OGV (Ogg Video) uses the completely patent-free Theora video codec with Vorbis audio inside Xiph.org's open Ogg container. MTS files from AVCHD camcorders use patented H.264 video and Dolby AC3 audio. Converting MTS to OGV produces video that is free of all patent encumbrances — essential for Wikipedia/Wikimedia Commons, government archives, and organizations with strict open-source policies.
Wikipedia requires all uploaded video to be in OGV or WebM format — proprietary formats like MTS/AVCHD are not accepted. If you have camcorder footage of educational, historical, or newsworthy events that should be on Wikipedia, converting to OGV is mandatory. Government agencies in the EU and several other jurisdictions also mandate patent-free formats for publicly accessible media.
For digital preservation, OGV's fully open specification guarantees that decoder implementations will be available indefinitely. There is no risk of patent expiration complications, licensing changes, or vendor abandonment. The Theora codec's simplicity ensures decoders can be implemented from the specification alone.
FFmpeg deinterlaces and encodes: `-vf yadif -c:v libtheora -q:v 7 -c:a libvorbis -q:a 5`. Theora quality 7 provides good general-purpose quality. The encoder is single-threaded, so conversion from 1080i AVCHD is slow. For Wikipedia, Wikimedia recommends 480p or 720p resolution and files under 100 MB.
Theora is approximately equivalent to H.264 Baseline in compression efficiency — significantly less efficient than the H.264 Main/High profile used in AVCHD. Expect roughly 2x the file size of H.264 at equivalent visual quality. At Theora quality 7-8, the output is presentable but noticeably softer than the source AVCHD.
